Note that these two partial derivatives are sometimes called the first order partial derivatives. Just as with functions of one variable we can have ...
Partial derivative - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partial_derivativeIn mathematics, a partial derivative of a function of several variables is its derivative with respect to one of those variables, with the others held constant (as opposed to the total derivative, in which all variables are allowed to vary). Partial derivatives are used in vector calculus and differential geometry. The partial derivative of a function with respect to the variable is variously denoted by
