Hi,

>From what I can tell, Sage lacks an explicit function to compute
implicit derivatives, akin say to Maple's implicit_diff command. See
this (really) old thread:

    
http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel/browse_thread/thread/f374f76bb3cd0361

Is this still the current situation? I've written one that seems to
work; something to the effect of

    sage: var('y')
    y
    sage: implicit_diff(x**2 + y**2 = x*y, y, x)
    (x - 2*y)/(2*x - y)
    sage: implicit_diff(x**2 + y**2 = x*y, x, y)
    (x - 2*y)/(2*x - y)

I'd be happy to open a ticket with the code & some documentation if
someone can suggest a location where to put it.

regards
john perry
