👉 In mathematics, an "indifferential" is a function that describes the rate of change of one variable with respect to another. It is also known as a derivative or differential operator. An example of an indifferential is the derivative of a function f(x) with respect to x (i.e., dy/dx). This operation allows us to calculate how much f changes in response to a small change in x, and can be applied in many different contexts such as physics, engineering, economics, etc
