Hi everyone,
the file below represents my incomplete code. How can i find the distance between the two minimum of my interpolated curve (represented in the image below)?

Hi IIDama,
so you have a polynomial and want to know its minima?
Usually you differentiate the polynomial to calculate the min/max points:
y = sum( a_i * x^i) will differentiated to y' = sum (a_i * i * x^i-1).
As you know the polynomial coefficients it should be quite easy to calculate!

Hi ben64,
i've already tried to use Peak Detector but my problem is that i don't know how to connect it to my code. Can you help me?

I want to find the minimum from an XYGraph, this solution doesn't work for it.

Don't do it on the XY Graph, use it on the Waveform Graph. Then you can retrieve the corresponding points on the XY Graph. Have you set the peaks/valleys input to valleys? set a threshold (and tried different values)?

I can't, look at my code!

Hi IIDama,

Why can't you? With all the suggestions you already got?
You got your plot of the polynom. Create a waveform with the data of this plot. Feed the waveform into PeakDetector. Set the parameters for PeakDetector and you will get the desired results!
