Class PartialDerivative

java.lang.Object

com.singularsys.jep.Variable

com.singularsys.extensions.xjep.XVariable

com.singularsys.extensions.djep.PartialDerivative

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public class PartialDerivative
extends DVariable

Contains information about a PartialDerivative of a variable.

Author:

Rich Morris Created on 29-Oct-2003 Since Jep 4.1 it no longer implements Observer so cannot detect if its root variable changes.
