Thanks for all replies, worked for my last function, but the suggestions
you guys made so far did work with my last function, but now i have a
new one, and i am here just playing around and i am unable to get it
drawn :(
First to the first Function, i believe the best suggestion was the use
of "if",
But, i can not get it to work :/
Clear[x, f, a]
f[a_][x_] := x (a + Log[x])^2
If[a > 0, Plot[f[x], {x, 0, 2}]]
And all suggestions also did not work at all for my new Function,
f[a_][x_] := (x/E^(ax));
Plot[Table[f[a, x], {a, 0, 2}], {x, 0, 3}]
What am i doing wrong ?
I have already drawn this function by hand,
and i have two types of function,
for a>0 and a<0
But i can not figure out how to draw it in Mathematica :(
Sorry, that i ask so "noob/dumb" questions, but i have already tried
looking in the help and it did not help me further in this problem, so i
believe the best is asking, right ?
Thanks a Lot.
