Derivative value of any expression at a point using Calculator App

Image
 To find derivative value at a point with respect to variable X - - Tap on the "Var" option and select  ∂/∂ X to find the 1st derivative (or  ∂ 2 /∂ X  to  find the 2nd derivative). - The app inputs the expression derv(1, , X) where the first parameter of derv is 1 for1st derivative  and third parameter X specifies the variable. Input the expression whose derivative needs to be  calculated at current value of X in 2nd parameter. A sample snapshot is shown below. The above snapshot calculates derivate of expression X*X + 2X - 1 at specified value of X = 1 To find derivative at any other value of X, change the specified value of X.
