numpy.polynomial.hermite_e.hermeder

polynomial.hermite_e.hermeder(c, m=1, scl=1, axis=0)[source]

Differentiate a Hermite_e series.

Returns the series coefficients c differentiated m times along axis. At each iteration the result is multiplied by scl (the scaling factor is for use in a linear change of variable). The argument c is an array of coefficients from low to high degree along each axis, e.g., [1,2,3] represents the series 1*He_0 + 2*He_1 + 3*He_2 while [[1,2],[1,2]] represents 1*He_0(x)*He_0(y) + 1*He_1(x)*He_0(y) + 2*He_0(x)*He_1(y) + 2*He_1(x)*He_1(y) if axis=0 is x and axis=1 is y.

Parameters:

carray_like

Array of Hermite_e series coefficients. If c is multidimensional the different axis correspond to different variables with the degree in each axis given by the corresponding index.

mint, optional

Number of derivatives taken, must be non-negative. (Default: 1)

sclscalar, optional

Each differentiation is multiplied by scl. The end result is multiplication by scl**m. This is for use in a linear change of variable. (Default: 1)

axisint, optional

Axis over which the derivative is taken. (Default: 0).

Returns:

derndarray

Hermite series of the derivative.

Notes

In general, the result of differentiating a Hermite series does not resemble the same operation on a power series. Thus the result of this function may be “unintuitive,” albeit correct; see Examples section below.
