Examples
Basic Examples (1)
See how to apply the product rule to compute the derivative of sin(x) * x2 with respect to x:
Scope (2)
If there is no explicit product in the first argument of ProductRule, one of the factors is taken to be 1:
If there is a product with multiple factors in the first argument of ProductRule, the factors are split into two separate products:
Options (3)
InactiveInnerDerivatives (1)
Setting "InactiveInnerDerivatives" to True inactivates the derivatives of the factors within the structure of the product rule:
PrintNapkin (1)
Setting "PrintNapkin" to True prints a grid with the side "napkin" work needed to apply the product rule (i.e., identifying and computing the derivatives of each factor):
PrintRule (1)
Setting "PrintRule" to True prints a general statement of the product rule for derivatives:
