Mathematica 5.1 introduced the unique capability of system-wide
support for piecewise functions--functions with different definitions
for different regions. More than 100 enhancements to solving,
calculus, and other capabilities were added for fully automatic
handling of piecewise functions.
Piecewise functionality is of wide-ranging importance across a number
of different fields, including many areas of engineering (particularly
hybrid systems) and education.
