osittaisderivaattat
Partial derivatives, known as osittaisderivaatta in Finnish, are a fundamental concept in multivariable calculus. They describe the rate of change of a function with respect to one of its variables, while holding all other variables constant. Imagine a function that depends on several inputs, like temperature and humidity affecting perceived comfort. A partial derivative would tell you how comfort changes if you only change the temperature, assuming the humidity stays the same.
To calculate a partial derivative, you treat all variables except the one you're differentiating with respect
Partial derivatives have widespread applications in physics, engineering, economics, and many other scientific fields. They are
