FNEvaluateDerivative#

Computes the value of the derivative f’(x) for a given x.

Synopsis#

#include "slepcfn.h" 
PetscErrorCode FNEvaluateDerivative(FN fn,PetscScalar x,PetscScalar *y)

Not Collective

Input Parameters#

  • fn - the math function context

  • x - the value where the derivative must be evaluated

Output Parameter#

  • y - the result of f’(x)

Note#

Scaling factors are taken into account, so the actual derivative evaluation will return alphabetaf’(alpha*x).
