▸ noun: (chemistry) A chemical derived from another.
▸ noun: (calculus) One of the two fundamental objects of study in calculus (the other being integration), which quantifies the rate of change, tangency, and other qualities arising from the local behavior of a function.
▸ noun: (Of a function of a single variable f(x)) The derived function of f(x): the function giving the instantaneous rate of change of f; equivalently, the function giving the slope of the line tangent to the graph of f. Written f'(x) or (df)/(dx) in Leibniz's notation, ̇f(x) in Newton's notation (the latter used particularly when the independent variable is time).
▸ noun: The value of such a derived function for a given value of its independent variable: the rate of change of a function at a point in its domain.
▸ noun: (Of more general classes of functions) Any of several related generalizations of the derivative: the directional derivative, partial derivative, Fréchet derivative, functional derivative, etc.
▸ noun: (generally) The linear operator that maps functions to their derived functions, usually written D; the simplest differential operator.
