Dy is the differential of y, that is, the derivative of x in the formula containing y.
Dx is not the transformation quantity of X, but the variation quantity of X is Δ x, and Δ x and dx are two completely different concepts. δx is a nonlinear variable and dx is a linear variable, and their relationship will play an unparalleled role in engineering numerical analysis.
The y corresponding to dx is called dy, which is differential; Y corresponding to Δ x is called Δ y, which means variation. Generally speaking, the function y obtained by dimensional analysis is almost impossible to be a linear function, and in 99% cases, y is a nonlinear function.
Methods of extended data derivation:
(1) Steps to find the derivative of the function y=f(x) at x0:?

② Find the average change rate?
③ Seek the limit and derivative.
(2) Derivative formulas of several common functions:?
① C'=0(C is a constant);
②(x^n)'=nx^(n- 1)(n∈q); ?
③(sinx)' = cosx; ?
④(cosx)' =-sinx; ?
⑤(e^x)'=e^x;
⑥ (a x)' = a A Xin (ln is natural logarithm)?
