Not a properly displayed piecewise function
I want to typeset a piecewise function - a function defined on two "pieces" of the domain. The pdf file I get when compiling the following code seems to have four lines, the first and third of which are blank. It makes for an ugly display.
documentclass[10pt]{amsart}
usepackage{amsmath}
usepackage{mathtools,array}
begin{document}
begin{equation*}
begin{cases}
1 & text{if } y > 0 \
-1 & text{if } y < 0
end{cases}
end{equation*}
end{document}
