Derivative vs. Warrant

In mathematics, the derivative of a function of a real variable measures the sensitivity to change of the function value (output value) with respect to a change in its argument (input value). Derivatives are a fundamental tool of calculus.

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 $f\text{'}(x)$ or $\backslash frac\{df\}\{dx\}$ in Leibniz's notation, $\backslash dot\{f\}(x)$ in Newton's notation (the latter used particularly when the independent variable is time).
