Examples of derivative in the following topics:
- 
Higher Derivatives- The derivative of an already-differentiated expression is called a higher-order derivative.
- The second derivative, or second order derivative, is the derivative of the derivative of a function.
- Furthermore, the third derivative is the derivative of the derivative of the derivative of a function, which can be represented by $f'''(x)$.
- This can continue as long as the resulting derivative is itself differentiable, with the fourth derivative, the fifth derivative, and so on.
- Any derivative beyond the first derivative can be referred to as a higher order derivative.
