15.2.3  Triangle function: tri

The triangle function is defined by

Λ(x)=


    1−|x|,|x|<1,
    0,otherwise.

This is equal to the convolution of rectangle function with itself (see Section 15.2.2).
The tri command computes the triangle function.


Example.
Input:

tri(x-1)

Output:


x+1+1

θ
x−1
−θ
x−1−1

+
1+x−1

θ
x+1
−θ
x+1−1
