    • A piecewise function is continuous on a given interval if the following conditions are met:
      • it is defined throughout that interval
      • its constituent functions are continuous on that interval
      • there is no discontinuity at each endpoint of the subdomains within that interval.
    • The pictured function, for example, is piecewise continuous throughout its subdomains, but is not continuous on the entire domain. The pictured function contains a jump discontinuity at [math]\displaystyle{ x_0 }[/math] .
