First sentence: 1. A function f(x) which is uniquely defined for all values of x in the interval (a, b) is said to have a greatest value or a maximum for the value x = x0, situated between a and b, if there is a positive quantity such that for all values of h between - and + the difference [1] f(x0 + h) - f(x0) 0 exists, which at the same time does not vanish for all these values of h.
