Powell's Badly Scaled Function

I. Mathematical Expression:

$$f(X)=\left(10^4x_1x_2-1\right)^2+\left(e^{\displaystyle-x_1}+e^{\displaystyle-x_2}-1.0001\right)^2$$

where:

$\bullet$ $-10\leq x_i\leq 10$, $i=1,2$

$\bullet$ $f_{min}(X^*)=0$

$\bullet$ $x^*_i \approx \left(1.098...\times 10^{-5},9.106...\right)$
