NAME

SYNOPSIS

    use Math::GSL::Diff qw/:all/;

DESCRIPTION

"gsl_diff_central"

This function computes the numerical derivative of the function f at the point x using an adaptive central difference algorithm. The result is an array where the first position is an error code (0 for success), the second is derivative value, and the third is an estimate of its absolute error.

   my ($success, $result, $error) =
         gsl_diff_central(sub { return $_[0] ** 1.5 }, 2.0);
    

"gsl_diff_backward"

This function computes the numerical derivative of the function f at the point x using an adaptive forward difference algorithm. Its usage is similar to "gsl_diff_central".

   my ($success, $result, $error) =
          gsl_diff_backward(sub { return $_[0] ** 1.5 }, 0.0);
    

"gsl_diff_forward"

This function computes the numerical derivative of the function f at the point x using an adaptive backward difference algorithm. Its usage is similar to "gsl_diff_central".

   my ($success, $result, $error) =
          gsl_diff_forward(sub { return $_[0] ** 1.5 }, 1.0);
