st: Derivatives.

[adiallo5@worldbank.org]

Hi dear stata users,

I want to perform the following calculus where x is a continuous variable.
I want to compute:

Y = - d f(x)/dx

where f is a known monotone function of x.
 Is there any command in Stata to quickly implement this?

Best regards.

Amadou.
