scipy.misc.derivative for multiple argument function

Question

It is straightforward to compute the partial derivatives of a function at a point with respect to the first argument using the SciPy function scipy.misc.derivative

Answer 1

Yes, it is implemented in sympy. Demo:

>>> from sympy import symbols, diff
>>> x, y = symbols('x y', real=True)
>>> diff( x**2 + y**3, y)
3*y**2
>>> diff( x**2 + y**3, y).subs({x:3, y:1})
3
