Probably not a single function, because it wouldn't pass the vertical line
test. Even if it were rotated, a piecewise function probably wouldn't work,
since I see no way of giving a separate function to every interval.
In theory, you could probably combine a bunch of functions and each will
contain part of the swastika design in it. One example would be:
y1=x
y2=-x
y3=x+5
y4=-x+5
y5=x-5
y6=-x-5
Also, as a sidenote, it should be noted that I in no way condone Naziism, or
the display of the swastika symbol; in fact, I find both to be pretty
repulsive. I am only answering this question as a student of mathematics.
