The function a(f,x) is sometimes written as called the partial derivative of g with respect to f keeping x fixed". It can be calculated by differentiating g with respect to f treating x as if it were a constant.
Similarly b(f,x) is called the partial derivative of g with respect to x keeping f fixed, written as , and is obtained by differentiating g with respect to x as if f were a constant.
