Nope. The function 1 x<0; -1, x>pi, cos(x) otherwise is continuous and its first derivative is continuous, but its second derivative is not, and its third does not exist at x=0 and pi. It is NOT maximally smooth. > _______________________________________________ questions mailing list questions@lists.ntp.org http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions
