drawing a function graph. Find the stationary points of the function and examine the quality of the function:

im sure i can draw the function but how do i find the stationary points?

[Gaston Gakomo]

>> syms x
>> f(x) =2*exp(-1)*(x-1)^3;
>> fplot(f)

is this the right way ?

If you think the question is unclear, why don't you edit the question to make it more clear?

This sounds like homework. You can find guidelines for posting homework on this forum here. If you have trouble with Matlab basics you may consider doing the Onramp tutorial (which is provided for free by Mathworks). If your main issue is with understanding the underlying concept, you may consider re-reading the material you teacher provided and ask them for further clarification.

1)probably differentiate the equation and solve for x , if your talking about local extremas

2)substitute the solution points using subs() back to the main function
