Talk:Implicit function
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I added the "Formula for two variables" section a while back. Now I see that the triple product rule article essentially derives the same thing. Should I remove it and link to that article? --Spoon! 23:41, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
I agree to merage this tow setion Implicit_function,Implicit_function_theorem. to complet the hole

Sorry i'm anon i should make an account. Anyway, i think that the heavy use of the graph of functions (implicit & explicit) on this page is not very mathematically precise. I do understand that the material is being presented in a somewhat laymans terms, but the graph of a function is not the same as the function itself. I don't have time to write an example of how i would change part of the page, i'll try to come back when i do have time.
I really think that the "Implicit function theorem" part should be separated (I guess separated again...), since it is very useful for mathematicians and is an important theorem. Implicitely-defined function, however, is not a deep mathematical concept, and, as mentioned above, is treated very lightly and not at all mathematically. yuliya 23:32, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
