Continuous/dashed lines in Matlab

I want to plot a line, that before the number a the line would be dashed and after the number a the line would be solid in matlab, for example,

clear all;close all;
x=0:.01:.5;
z=.51:.01:1;
f=x.^2-3*x+.5;
g=z.^2-3*z+.5;
plot(x,f,'--',z,g,'b')

Is there a way to do this without spliting the interval and creating two functions?

You can make things a little more automated than your example like this:

clear all;close all;
x=0:.01:1;
f=x.^2-3*x+.5;
a = 0.5;
hold on
plot(x(x<a),f((x<a)),'--')
plot(x(x>=a),f(x>=a),'b-')

enter image description here

MATLAB does not have options for plotting multiple styles for the same function. The best place to see the options is help plot

You can refer to the help page here.
