ON THE DERIVATIVE OF SMOOTH MEANINGFUL FUNCTIONS
The derivative of a function f in n variables at a point x* is one of the most important tools in mathematical modelling. If this object exists, it is represented by the row n-tuple f(x*) = [∂f/∂xi(x*)] called the gradient of f at x*, abbreviated: “the gradient”. The evaluation of f(x*) is usually...
