diffalg.Differentiate

Computes the derivation of a polynomial.

Syntax

$diffalg.Differentiate(F:POLY):POLY

Description

The function computes the derivation of the polynomial F. If the order of the result would exceed the given maximum order as implied by the current ring, an error is thrown.

Example

Use Q[x[1..2,0..20]];
F:=x[1,4]^2*x[1,1]-x[2,4]^3;
$diffalg.Differentiate(F);
-------------------------------
x[1,2]x[1,4]^2 + 2x[1,1]x[1,4]x[1,5] - 3x[2,4]^2x[2,5]
-------------------------------

Use Q[x[1..2,0..20]];
F:=x[1,20]^2*x[1,1]-x[2,4]^3;
$diffalg.Differentiate(F);
-------------------------------
ERROR: Maximum order is exceeded.
CONTEXT: Error("Maximum order is exceeded.")
