Hi Shubham, Three things. First, this the tutorial I recommend to start:
https://docs.sympy.org/latest/tutorials/intro-tutorial/calculus.html It gets right to the point - and it enables you to do symbolic math - including derivatives and integral calculus right at the beginning. x, y, z = symbols('x y z')init_printing(use_unicode=True) Derivatives To take derivatives, use the diff() <https://docs.sympy.org/latest/modules/core.html#sympy.core.function.diff> function. diff(cos(x), x)-sin(x)diff(exp(x**2), x) ⎛ 2⎞ ⎝x ⎠2⋅x⋅ℯ I will be including this kind of information in some material I am writing about Python and math. Also, I sent this link to my friend Tereuhas who is on LinkedIN She is doing a series of related introductory material https://www.linkedin.com/in/terezijasemenski/ https://www.linkedin.com/learning/instructors/terezija-semenski But that first Google tutorial - it's like immediate help.
