newDeriv: newDeriv

Description

Define a new derivative expression.

Usage

newDeriv (expr, deriv, derivEnv = sysDerivs)

Arguments

expr

An expression represented as a quoted expression.

deriv

The derivative. See Details below.

derivEnv

The environment in which to store the setting.

Details

Both expr and deriv are treated as unevaluated expressions.

deriv should include the sum of derivatives with respect to all variables similar to a “total derivative” using D for the differential. See the examples below.

This is mainly intended for internal use.

Examples

Run this code
newDeriv(sin(x), cos(x)*D(x))
newDeriv(x*y, x*D(y) + D(x)*y)

nlsDeriv(quote(sin(x)*sin(y)), "x")
