ariables with the degree in each axis given by the corresponding index. m : int, optional Number of derivatives taken, must be non-negative. (Default: 1) scl : scalar, 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) axis : int, optional Axis over which the derivative is taken. (Default: 0). .. versionadded:: 1.7.0 Returns ------- der : ndarray Legendre series of the derivative. See Also -------- legint Notes ----- In general, the result of differentiating a Legendre 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. Examples -------- >>> from numpy.polynomial import legendre as L >>> c = (1,2,3,4) >>> L.legder(c) array([ 6., 9., 20.]) >>> L.legder(c, 3) array([60.]) >>> L.legder(c, scl=-1) array([ -6., -9., -20.]) >>> L.legder(c, 2,-1) array([ 9., 60.]) r
