Derivative function

[Ricardo Cervera]

        Hello.

        I wanted to know if it is possible to get the derivative function of a
function given, using Octave. I mean, something like:

function y = f(x)
y = sin(x);
endfunction

        And what I am looking for is f'(x), for example cos(x).


        Thanks a lot.
