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.

By default, this method returns a GeneralCurve created from an automatic numerical differentiator delegate producted by the CreateDelegate(RealFunction) method of the NumericalDifferentiator class.
