DerivationAction

Action of a derivation
Syntax
          
DerivationAction(Derivation:POLY, P:POLY)

          

Description
Given the polynomial P and the derivation D, computes the action of D on P.

For the sake of simplicity Forms/Polynomials and Derivations live in the same ring, the distinction between them is purely formal.

Example
  DerivationAction(xyz, x^3+xyz);
