    Ramp Function

    Usage

    Ramp[x] gives x if x>=0 and 0 otherwise.

    Basic examples

    Evaluate numerically:
In[1]:=Ramp[-1]
Out[1]=0
In[2]:=Ramp[3.7]
Out[2]=3.7
Plot over a subset of the reals:
In[1]:=Plot[Ramp[x], {x, -2, 2}]
Out[1]=
Ramp is a piecewise function:
In[1]:=PiecewiseExpand[Ramp[x]]
Out[1]= piecewise | x | x>=0
0 | True
