  ABSTRACT: In this work, we introduce a method of finding the global minimum of bounded from below functions with continuous partial derivatives in an Euclidean space E n with existing finite points of the global minimum. We create a function that finds the zeros of the sign function of the sum of the squares of the partial derivatives of the function to minimize. We can solve with this method also systems of simultaneous continuous nonlinear equations. We create, in that case, a function that finds the zeros of the sign function of the sum of the squares of the equations of the system to solve.
