  1. What is the difference between minimum and infimum?

    Mar 27, 2013 · But, as we saw, not every real set has a minimum. So in the example $$ \inf\{f(x)\mid x\in (0,\infty)\} = 0. $$ Note that the infimum and the minimum can be the same.

  2. Use the bisection method to find the minimum of the function

    Apr 17, 2018 · a (Float64): The left bound of the search interval. b (Float64): The right bound of the search interval. tol (Float64): The desired tolerance for the minimum. max_iters (Int64): The maximum number of iterations possible. Returns: Float64: The minimum of the function f(x) within the given interval.

  3. What are the common abbreviation for minimum in equations?

    May 9, 2017 · For Boolean Algebra * is a 'minimum' operator, whereas + is a 'maximum' operator. But, as mentioned above, 'min' is OK, as most programming languages use some variant of min(). but C does not. Program comments would use either 'min' or '<=, both easy ASCII typing.

  5. terminology - Equivalent to 'Minimum' meaning 'Closest to zero ...

    Absolute Minimum - In a set of numbers, the number closest to zero, regardless of sign. Absolute Maximum - In a set of numbers, the number furthest from zero, regardless of sign. These fit with the standard definitions of these terms in the sense that the result is the Minimum (or Maximum ) of the Absolute values for each number in the set, and ...

  7. notation - Why is $\wedge$ a minimum and $\vee$ a maximum ...

    Then it make sense because the supremum is the minimum of the set of upper bounds, and the infimum the maximum of the set of lower bound. Anyway I dont saw this notation, only I see them symbolizing the AND and OR symbols of logic. The minimum comes from below and vice versa, it make sense to me as it too. $\endgroup$ –
