Higher Derivatives
The derivative of a function is a function and it may be
possible to differentiate it again and again and again.
The derivative of the derivative is called the Second
Derivative
The derivative of this is called the Third Derivative

A maximum
corresponds to a
zero in first
derivative and
negative second
derivative.
A minimum
corresponds to a
zero in first
derivative and
positive second
derivative.
A inflection point
corresponds to a
stacionary point in
first derivative and
zero in second
derivative.

The partial derivative of
one variable with respect
to another is defined as
the result of differen-
tiating the expression
while treating all other
independent variables as
constants.

Partial Differentiation
Let f(x,y) be a function of two independent variables x and y.
f has derivatives with respect to both x and y. These are the
partial derivatives
