DERIV Derivative and partial derivative
DERIV has two arguments: an expression (or a function)
and a variable.
DERIV returns the derivative of the expression (or the
function) with respect to the variable given as the second
parameter (used for calculating partial derivatives).
Example
Calculate:
Typing:
DERIV(X·Y
2
·Z
3
+ X·Y,Z)
gives:
DERVX Derivative
DERVX has one argument: an expression. DERVX
calculates the derivative of the expression with respect to
the variable stored in VX.
For example, given:
calculate the derivative of f.
Type:
Or, if you have stored the definition of f(x) in F, that is, if
you have typed:
then type:
