Little differentiation question
In my notes, it says this:
But I don't understand how it differentiates to that. Shouldn't it be this?
I know that the notes' result is correct, but I don't understand how it was derived!

this is partial
you treating it as a chain rule of a full differential
if you diff wrt z partially strictly speaking the derivatives should be the other way but since they commute they wrote it like this

The first result makes sense yes (ug is a function of P so think of everything else as a constant). How did you get the second result?
