Hi all, I am trying to implement the following matlab code with Ryacas : syms U x x0 C
d1=diff(U/(1+exp(-(x-x0)/C)),x); pretty(d1) d2=diff(U/(1+exp(-(x-x0)/C)),x,2); pretty(d2) solx2 = solve(d2 == 0, x, 'Real', true) pretty(solx2) slope2=subs(d1,solx2) I have tried the following : library(Ryacas) x <- Sym("x");U <- Sym("U");x0 <- Sym("x0");C <- Sym("C") my_func <- function(x,U,x0,C) { return (U/(1+exp(-(x-x0)/C)))} FirstDeriv <- deriv(my_func(x,U,x0,C), x) PrettyForm(FirstDeriv) slope <- yacas("Subst(x,x0),deriv(my_func(x,U,x0,C), x)") PrettyForm(slope) I don't understand how I should use the Subst command. I want the slope of the first derivative at x=x0. How do I implement that? I would appreciate any help that I can get.
