Create a function that will evaluate ?(?)=?2+4?+4. Find the minimum of the function in the interval (-40, 40). Do this by solving ?(?) for 500 values of x between -40 and 40 and finding the least. Do NOT use any built-in function to find the minimum nor to obtain 500 values of x.

Using Python, I am trying to write a loop that will provide the minimum of this function. I have provided the problem statement (below) and my code as I have written it so far in the attached image.

Create a function that will evaluate ?(?)=?2+4?+4. Find the minimum of the function in the interval (-40, 40). Do this by solving ?(?) for 500 values of x between -40 and 40 and finding the least. Do NOT use any built-in function to find the minimum nor to obtain 500 values of x.

def funct1(x):
result = x**2 + 4*x + 4
return result
for i in range (-40, 41):
print("The value of the function when x =", i, "is", funct1(i))
Transcribed Image Text:def funct1(x): result = x**2 + 4*x + 4 return result for i in range (-40, 41): print("The value of the function when x =", i, "is", funct1(i))
