		In calculus, Rolles theorem states that if a function f is continuous on a closed interval [a,b] and differentiable on the open interval (a,b), and f(a) = f(b) then there is some number c in the open interval (a,b) such that f (c) = 0.
		Rolle was an early critic of calculus, arguing that it was inaccurate and based upon unsound reasoning.
		Rolle's Theorem is used in proving the mean value theorem, which eliminates the requirement that f(a) = f(b).

	Rolle's theorem : Rolles theorem
		Rolle's theorem is a mathematical theorem; developed by Rolle, and published in 1691.
		Rolle's Theorem is used in proving the mean value theorem, which can be seen as a generalisation of it.
		Proof of Rolle's Theorem: The idea of the proof is to argue that if f(a) = f(b) then f must attain either a maximum or a minimum somewhere between a and b, and f ' (x) = 0 at either of these points.

		In India, the 12th century mathematician Bhaskara conceived of differential calculus, and gave examples of the derivative and differential coefficient, along with a statement of what is now known as Rolle's theorem.
		Around that time, the attempts to refine the theorems of Riemann integration led to the study of the "size" of the set of discontinuities of real functions.
		A theorem is a proposition that has been or is to be proved on the basis of explicit assumptions.

	Definition of Rolle's theorem
		Intuitively, this means that if a smooth curve is equal at two points then there must be a stationary point somewhere between them.
		The idea of the proof is to argue that if f(a) = f(b) then f must attain either a maximum or a minimum somewhere between a and b, and f ' (x) = 0 at either of these points.
		The theorem is usually stated in the form above, but it is actually valid in a slightly more general setting: We only need to assume that f : [a, b]

		Objectives: In this tutorial, we discuss Rolle's Theorem and the Mean Value Theorem.
		We look at some applications of the Mean Value Theorem that include the relationship of the derivative of a function with whether the function is increasing or decreasing.
		Let f be a differentiable function such that the derivative f ' is positive on the closed interval [a, b].

		Rolle's theorem says that if a ball is thrown up and comes back down, then at some time along its journey it is neither going up or down, i.e., it reaches a maximum.
		The mean value theorem states that the instantaneous velocity equals the average velocity somewhere along the trip.
		The extreme value theorem tell us that all continuous function reach a top and a bottom.

		Today we talked about theorem 4.3 (sometimes called "Fermat's" theorem), Rolle's theorem and the mean-value theorem for derivatives.
		Typically in a first calculus course these are the "entry" theorems.
