TYPICAL OBJECTS OF TYPE Multi Linear 1D Fn

MultiLin1DFn

</defs>

This type represents a function ƒ that maps one real variable x to another real variable ƒ(x) produced by stitching together r linear functions L₁ , L₂ , ... , Lᵣ defined on non-overlapping intervals on the real axis.
For simplicity, the linear functions L₁ , L₂ , ... , Lᵣ are not specified as objects of type
Linear Fn, but rather through their parameters mᵢ and cᵢ in their defining formulas Lᵢ(x) = mᵢx + cᵢ
The r parameters m₁ , m₂ , ... , mᵣ are defined through the key
Slopes
The r parameters c₁ , c₂ , ... , cᵣ are defined through the key
Intercepts

The first linear function L₁ is defined on some interval I₁, the second linear function L₂ on some interval I₂ and the last linear function Lᵣ on the interval Iᵣ
These intervals must be distinct and in strict increasing order.

Notationally, the function formula is given by:
ƒ(x) = Lᵢ(x) if x ∊ Iᵢ for i = 1 , ... , r
