Polynomial..::..GetDerivative Method

Polynomial Class  See Also 
Returns a Curve of type Polynomial that represents the derivative of this Polynomial.

Namespace:  Extreme.Mathematics.Curves
Assembly:  Extreme.Numerics.Net20 (in Extreme.Numerics.Net20.dll) Version: 3.6.10055.0 (3.6.10077.0)

Syntax

C#
public override Curve GetDerivative()
Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public Overrides Function GetDerivative As Curve
Visual C++
public:
virtual Curve^ GetDerivative() override
F#
abstract GetDerivative : unit -> Curve 
override GetDerivative : unit -> Curve 

Return Value

A Curve that represents the derivative of this curve.

Remarks

The value of the derivative of a curve at a point is the slope of the curve at that point. For polynomials of degree 0 or 1, a Constant is returned. For polynomials of degree 2, a Line is returned. For polynomials of degree 3, a Quadratic is returned.
