VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Subject: Re: relative and absolute Author: Mrs. Banu (Not good enough to share) [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 21:57:57 10/23/07 Tue In reply to: Richard Yoo 's message, "relative and absolute" on 20:00:59 10/22/07 Mon A relative or local max is a low point on your graph - sometimes thought of as the bottom of a valley. An absolute max is the lowest point on a graph. You can have many low points (many local max points) but you can only have one absolute max value for a function. Same with the minimum. Hope this helps! If not, give it another couple of days, we'll keep practicing this week. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
