Can I make the plot skip jumps in data?

I have a plot of data, where the y values are bounded from -pi to pi. After a value goes above pi, it starts at the bottom of the plot with a value of pi. However, when plotted this means there is a line connecting the jump in value. Is there a way to plot the data without the lines connecting the values at each jump point?

That tries to fix the discontinuity by moving the data set by factors of 2pi. I want the discontinuities to stay, just without the line connecting them.

The idea is replacing discontinus part by NaN values.

x = 1:0.1:pi*10;
y = mod(x,pi*2)-pi;
y(abs(diff(y))>2) = NaN;
plot(x,y);

Thanks, this seems to do what I want!
