If all the first partial derivatives of f exist at [tex]\vec{x}[/tex], and if [tex]
\lim_{\vec{h}\rightarrow\vec{0}}\frac {f(\vec{x})-(\nabla f(\vec{x}))\cdot\vec{h}}{||\vec{h}||} = 0
[/tex]
Then f is differentiable at [tex]\vec{x}[/tex]
Note: Its the magnitude of h on the bottom.
First of all, I don't exactly understand what a function of a vector is like f([tex]\vec{x}[/tex]). Does it mean that this function is evaluated at the terminal point of this vector?
