Symbolically
syms x real
f = 1/x
int(f,1,2) % integration
ans =
log(2)
diff(f) %differentiation
ans =
-1/x^2
[edit - amplification]
syms x a b real positive
f = 1/x
f =
1/x
int(f) % without limits
ans =
log(x)
int(f,a,b) % with limits
ans =
log(b) - log(a)
fn = matlabFunction(f) % convert symbolic to anonymous function
fn =
@(x)1./x
quadgk(fn,1,2) % integrate numerically
ans =
0.6931
log(2) % previous result from symbolic integration
ans =
0.6931
(fn(2+1e-6)-fn(2))/1e-6 %numerical derivative at fn(2)
ans =
-0.2500
subs(diff(f),2) %substitute 2 into symbolic result previously obtained
ans =
-0.2500

Yes, Nasir, then the integral is calculated from 1 to 2. "Symbolically" mean calculations with symbols, usually characters. The result is a formula. "Numerically" means, that you calculate a numerical value, a number.

Just here to suggest some recent resources, There is a nice section in the Symbolic Math Toolbox with additional examples for differentiation as well as a FEX curriculum on this topic:

f = @(x) sin(x);
second_derivative_f = matlabFunction(diff(sym(f)));

syms x
f = x;
diff(f,x)
why this code give me error as;
>>Error in diff (line 1)
syms x

You probably do not have the symbolic toolbox installed or licensed.
Also, you accidentally named your script diff.m which is going to conflict with calling diff() to differentiate.
