<a class="link" href="beta_derivative.html#math_toolkit.special.sf_beta.beta_derivative.description">Description</a>
</h5>
<p>
This function finds some uses in statistical distributions: it computes
the partial derivative with respect to <span class="emphasis"><em>x</em></span> of the incomplete
beta function <a class="link" href="ibeta_function.html" title="Incomplete Beta Functions">ibeta</a>.
</p>
<p>
<span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="../../../../equations/derivative2.png"></span>
</p>
<p>
The return type of this function is computed using the <a class="link" href="../../main_overview/result_type.html" title="Calculation of the Type of the Result"><span class="emphasis"><em>result
type calculation rules</em></span></a> when T1, T2 and T3 are different
types.
</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
The final <a class="link" href="../../policy.html" title="Policies">Policy</a> argument
is optional and can be used to control the behaviour of the function:
how it handles errors, what level of precision to use etc. Refer to the
<a class="link" href="../../policy.html" title="Policies">policy documentation for more details</a>.

<p>
Almost identical to the incomplete beta function <a class="link" href="ibeta_function.html" title="Incomplete Beta Functions">ibeta</a>.

</h5>
<p>
This function just expose some of the internals of the incomplete beta
function <a class="link" href="ibeta_function.html" title="Incomplete Beta Functions">ibeta</a>:
refer to the documentation for that function for more information.
