Hi all,
I'm fairly new to maxima, but could not really find a solution to my
problem in the archives or in the friendly manual...
I'm trying the following:
g(x):=x^3;
dg(x):=diff(g(x),x,1);
dg(0);
This fails when evaluating dg(0) with:
diff: second argument must be a variable; found 0
I tried using the single quote operator, lambda expressions but could
not make it work.
I found a workaround using arrays of functions but would prefer a
direct method:
ddg[n](x):=diff(g(x),x,1);
ddg[0](0);
Any help would be much appreciated, best regards,
Laurent
