    Calculus
    Section 2.3

    I want to see the graph.
    For part (b), I need (ii) and (iii) only.
    Yes, part (c) is needed.

    The range of f(x)=[[cos x]], − π<=x< =π,where [[ ]] represent greatest integer function less than or equal to x is:

    cos[x]=cos(−1)=cos1
    cos[x]=cos(0)=1

    Required range={cos1,1}

    I understand it is the Greatest Integer Function aka the Step Function. I thought the graph of the step function is like a ladder. No? I had no idea that this function can actually form the graph of a parabola.
