Extremum[ <Polynomial> ]
Yields all local extrema of the polynomial function as points on the function graph.
Example:
Extremum[x³ + 3x² - 2x + 1] creates local extrema points - (0.29, 0.696) and (-2.3, 9.3) - and shows them in the Graphics View.
Extremum[ <Function f>, <left-x>, <right-x> ]
Calculates (numerically) the extremum of f in the open interval ( <left-x>, <right-x> )
Note: Function f should be continuous in [ <left-x>, <right-x> ], otherwise false extremums near discontinuity might be calculated.
Example:
Extremum[(x⁴ - 3x³ - 4x² + 4) / 2, x(X_i), x(X_f)] creates each local extrema point in the given interval and shows it in the Graphics View.
