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 alpha*beta*f'(alpha*x).
