To define a piecewise function in MATLAB, use an if-else block to specify the conditions for different segments of the function. For the given function y_of_t, implement it as follows: if t is between 0 and 1 millisecond, set y_of_t to 10*cos(2*pi*2500*t); otherwise, set it to 0. This approach allows for clear differentiation of the function's behavior based on the value of t. Additionally, ensure to properly handle the time variable and the plotting function to visualize the results effectively. Defining piecewise functions in MATLAB can enhance the analysis of complex signals.

So this problem involves computing and plotting the FFT in MATLAB. However, I do not know how to define a piecewise function in MATLAB. The function is as follows:
Code:
y_of_t = {  10cos(2*pi*2500*t), 0 <= t <= 1 msec
                0                         , else

How do I go about defining that function in MATLAB? I know how to do the plotting but just never dealt with piecewise functions in this program. Thanks.
