Inflection point
text:
In differential calculus and differential geometry, an inflection point, point of inflection, flex, or inflection is a point on a smooth plane curve at which the curvature changes sign. In particular, in the case of the graph of a function, it is a point where the function changes from being concave to convex, or vice versa. For the graph of a function f of differentiability class C, the condition f'' = 0 can also be used to find an inflection point since a point of f'' = 0 must be passed to ch
