renatoerp Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 How can I apply derivation in computer??? I need to build an algorithm to do this. There is a default method to derivation, but I dont know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timo Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Symbolically or numerically? Numerically, the simplemost implementation is [math] f'(x) = (f(x+dx) - f(x))/dx [/math] with a relatively small variable/constant dx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1veedo Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Have the user input an equation and parse it. The calculus part would be the easiest the hard part would be simplifying it (eg algebra). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cap'n Refsmmat Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Depends on the equation they input. If it's something that requires the quotient rule or something nasty like that it might be a bit difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
