The two halfway points in the period are at pi/4 and 3pi/4; that means a complete period is from 0 to pi. So the period is the same as the basic tangent function; but it is shifted pi/2 units to the right.
The y values at the halfway points of the basic tangent function are -1 and 1; with the y values at the halfway points in this example 2 and -2, the basic tangent function is multiplied by -2, and there is no vertical shift.
