How would I plot a piecewise summation.

Would anyone be able to help me to plot this equation in MATLAB?

Something like this?

tau = 1;
t = 0:0.1:10;
n = ceil(t/tau);
for i = 1:numel(n)
    
     S = 0;
     for k = 1:n(i)
        S = S + (-1)^k*(t(i) - (k-1)*tau)^k/factorial(k); 
     end
     u(i) = 1 + S;
end
plot(t,u),grid
xlabel('t'),ylabel('u')

Yes thankyou so much!
