jacobian

Jacobian matrix

Syntax

• R = jacobian(w,v)
  

Description

jacobian(w,v) computes the Jacobian of w with respect to v. w is a symbolic scalar expression or a symbolic column vector. v is a symbolic row vector. The (i,j)-th entry of the result is .

Examples

The statements

• w = [x*y*z; y; x+z];
  v = [x,y,z];        
  R = jacobian(w,v)
  b = jacobian(x+z, v)
  
  
  

return

• R =
  [y*z, x*z, x*y]
  [  0,   1,   0]
  [  1,   0,   1]
  
  b =
  [1, 0, 1]
