- Or you could let BASIC do it for you, and the program becomes trivial.
- About 5 years ago my son was learning to graph, so I wrote such a program
- that finds mins, max, differentiates, finds mins & max of the
- differential, and plots the equation. I haven't done anything with the
- Atari in over 3 years, so I do not know if I still have this. If I find
- it, I will post the program.
