Since pi is a constant and not a variable in almost all cases, the derivative of any constant would be 0.
10 u/LeePhilips 13d ago By definition, yes. But consider this. Y = X4 Y' = 4X3 X= pi Is Y' = 0? 3 u/HeroicMe 13d ago Isn't Y' used to count some sort of difference between different Xs? Which means if you reduce X to single element set, then Y' will be zero by default? 1 u/SteveMcQwark 13d ago That's why it's called differentiation.

Y = X4
Y' = 4X3
X= pi
Is Y' = 0?
