Hi, I'm looking for a software which can solve the following problem: I've measured some values for the velocity of a test vehicle in a regular short period of time. Thus, I have pais of values (velocity x in time t). I would like to use these values to draw a graph and find then the turning point. Hence, the program should draw a tangent through the turning point. Please tell me if mathematica is able to perform this task and give me a short instruction for the solution. Thank you very much. Best regards, Christian Christmann
