Derivatives of functions are computed using differential calculus. A derivative in calculus is defined as “the rate of change of quantity y with respect to quantity x”. This sounds very similar to the ...

Abstract: Derivatives of mathematical functions play a key role in various areas of numerical and technical computing. Many of these computations are done in MATLAB, a popular environment for ...

Hello, I have a question regarding how cost derivatives are computed in this repository, I have read the paper as well as the overview document and I understand the mathematical theory about how the ...

In a previous paper (Lyness and Moler [1]), several closely related formulas of use for obtaining a derivative of an analytic function numerically are derived. Each of these formulas consists of a ...

In 1975 one of the coauthors, Ikebe, showed that the problem of computing the zeros of the regular Coulomb wave functions and their derivatives may be reformulated as ...
