Gets the location (x-value) of the extremum.
Note that numerical methods for finding typical a maximum or minimum cannot determine its location to full precision. Near a quadratic extremum, a change in x of ~ε will change f(x) by ~ε2. Thus the smallest detectable change in f(x) will typically correspond to a change in x of order of the square root of full precision. Full Double precision being ~16 digits, you should expect the location to be accurate only to ~8 digits.
