`f(x)= ax^3 + bx^2 + cx + d`
f(0)= 0
==> d = 0
f(2)= 4
==> 8a + 4b + 2c = 4
==> 4a + 2b + c = 2 .............(1)
`f'(x)= 3ax^2 + 2bx + c`
f'(2)= 0
==> 12a + 4b + c = 0...........(2)
8a + 2b = -2
4a + b = -1 ..................(3)
f''(x)= 6ax + 2b
f''(0)= 0
==> b = 0
4a = -1
==> `a = -1/4`
`` ==> 4a + c = 2
==> -1 + c = 2
==> c = 3
