@Isaiah.Feynman

OpenStudy (perl):

you want the maximum of that function

OpenStudy (perl):

you can graph it, which is kind of difficult, or you can use properties of gaussian functions

OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):

what are the properties?

OpenStudy (perl):

it will have the form e^ (-(x- mean)^2 / st dev)

OpenStudy (darkbluechocobo):

well isn't the equation already in the form of that?
