Dear sir/madam,
I have a function y=f(x). I need to differentiate this function and find the value of the differentiation(slope) at a given point (x1,y1). How could I do this in matlab? Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Thanking you, BSD

variant 1 use Symbolic Math Toolbox e.g.: your function f(x) = x^3+x^2*2+1
syms x
y = x^3+x^2*2+1;
df = matlabFunction(diff(y))
df =
@(x)x.*4.0+x.^2.*3.0
>> point = df(5)
point =
95
>>
variant 2 use interpolation
x = linspace(-5,5,12);
y = x.^3+x.^2*2+1;
fpp = interp1(x,y,'pchip','pp')
dfpp = fnder(fpp)
df = @(x)fnval(dfpp,x)
point = df(5)

diff() function performs only the differentiation.
After differentiating I also need the value at a given point (x1,y1).

subs() in the particular point values after doing the diff() .
If you need the value in the form of a double precision number instead of a symbolic number, then use double() on the result of the subs()

If you do not have access to Symbolic Math Toolbox, you may want to use one of my recent FileExchange submissions:

f(x)=x^2-3*x+1

This does not appear to be an answer to the question that was asked?
