Description
If
f is a 1 by
m matrix over a polynomial ring
R with
n indeterminates, then the resulting matrix of partial derivatives has dimensions
n by
m, and the
(i,j) entry is the partial derivative of the
j-th entry of
f by the
i-th indeterminate of the ring.
If the ring of
f is a quotient polynomial ring
S/J, then only the derivatives of the given entries of
f are computed and NOT the derivatives of elements of
J.

If the ring of
f is a polynomial ring over a polynomial ring, then indeterminates in the coefficient ring are treated as constants.
