Derivative - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DerivativeDifferentiation is the action of computing a derivative. The derivative of a function y = f(x) of a variable x is a measure of the rate at which the value y of the function changes with respect to the change of the variable x. It is called the derivative of f with respect to x. If x and y are real numbers, and if the graph of f is plotted against x, derivative is the slope of this graph at each point.
