isdifferentiable(expr, var, class)

isdifferentiable(expr, var, class, varparam)

Parameters

expr

-

expression

var

-

variable name

class

-

number n telling if the expr is in class Cn

varparam

-

(optional) name

Description

• 

isdifferentiable determines if the expression expr containing piecewise or piecewise functions such as abs, signum, max, ..., is of class C^ class.  It returns either true or false.

• 

The optional argument varparam can be passed to the function and in case expr is not of class Cn, varparam contains information of which Cn class the function is, and a list of points where we have discontinuities in the n+1-th derivative.
