PPT Slide

Ah! We define

The connection in place …...

You guess it!

Precision

Getting acquainted with JN

Ah... the limit we go to …...

Getting to know KN……..

Good old Fermat……..

Going to the peak …….

Locating the critical point

The peak and a new function

“The hills are not insurmountable.”

Going back to (E)

Taking stock!

Another look at tN ……….

Beginning to see the hill……..

The inverse of f

Diminishing tN ……...

In praise of continuity……..

A little goes a long way…….

Returning to KN ……….

Still on KN ……….

Vanish we will, eventually…...

Still vanishing……….

Being precise is close to the truth

Returning to KN …….

At long last……….
