Thank you very much! I wonder if MS Student can work with Asymptotes?

XL doesn't understand the concept of an asymptote or of infinity. So, the
best one can do is create the appropriate visual effect. See

I'm trying to make various graphs based on the function "y = tan(x)" for
revision purposes. The only problem is that the graph contains an asymptote:
a dotted line parallel to the y-axis that the plot-line approaches but never
quite reaches. Excel doesn't seem to recognise this and I don't know how to
make it deal with asymptotes.

In other words, the asymptote represents a value of +-infinity.
