`scipy.optimize.``rosen`(x)

  The Rosenbrock function.

  The function computed is:

      sum(100.0*(x[1:] - x[:-1]**2.0)**2.0 + (1 - x[:-1])**2.0

  Parameters: | x : array_like 1-D array of points at which the Rosenbrock function is to be computed.
  Returns: | f : float The value of the Rosenbrock function.
