Differentiation Notations
================================
Leibniz's Notation
-------------------
The derivative of a function :math:`f` at :math:`x` is given
by :math:`\lim\limits_{h\to0} \frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}`.
The Leibniz's notation expresses the derivative of :math:`f` as :math:`\frac{dy}{dx}` with :math:`y=f(x)`.
