SPAkern Global Function api_ndifferentiate_law

outcome api_ndifferentiate_law(	law*	`input_law`,
	double*	`where`,
	int	`which_dim`,
	double*	`answer`,
	int	`type`	`= 0`,
	int	`times`	`= 1` )

Numerically differentiates a law at a given point with respect to a given variable a given number of times.

Role: The derivative may be taken from both sides or just from the left or right.

Effect: Read-only.

Journal: Not Available

Parameters:

input_law: the law to differentiate.
where: where to take the derivative.
which_dim: which variable to take the derivative with respect to.
answer: the result of the differentiation.
type: 0 = normal, 1 = from the left, 2 = from the right.
times: how many times to take the derivative.
