I have the following problem : I have two nested functions

a=lambda x: 2*x
b=lambda x: a(x)^2

Everything goes well as long as I want to compute the derivative of b
but how can I evaluate this derivative at x=2.
I tried

g=lambda x: diff(b(x),x)
g(x) returns 8*x as expected

but g(2)=0.

In other words, how can we substitute x=2 to the expression 8*x ?
 I guess this is somewhere in the docs but I didn't find where.
