maximum and minimum values


Explanation:
the Arabic terminology is no longer used. It seems the translator stuck with an old document. Nowadays we use maximum and minimum values. In calculus we differentiate between local extrema (maximum or minimum) and global extrema. The 1st the function reaches its extrema relative to the points in its neighborhood whereas in the global one the function reaches over the entire range called the domain of the function
