RE: Derivatives on HP 42S

If x < 0 and y is odd integer, return -(-x) ^ (1/y), else x ^ (1/y) If you knew y is odd integer, it is even simpler, just check sign of x. This avoids the extremum search returning complex results. Just add the check straight into Fx Edit: complex number don't understand x < 0, may be real part of x instead ? |
