In the real world you often have a numerical function which has to be evaluated with REAL parameters, but you also sometimes need its derivative which is generally not available in analytical form. See also this thread on the HP forums: https://www.hpmuseum.org/forum/thread-18482.html The subject has been presented and discussed elsewhere before on the web, see e.g. How to Differentiate with a Computer Dual Numbers & Automatic Differentiation Automatic differentiation (AD) of program code is interesting. Decades ago I redid the work of ADIFOR in a symbolic CAS-like system I called "Ctadel" to add forward and reverse AD to generate forward differentiated and adjoint Fortran code. The ADIFOR 1996 article is a good read: https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/doc...eryWjbG4vA - Rob "I count on old friends" -- HP 71B,Prime|Ti VOY200,Nspire CXII CAS|Casio fx-CG50...|Sharp PC-G850,E500,2500,1500,14xx,13xx,12xx... |
