I have i math like this:
L=5
x=5*L^2   %x=125
I need to have a result of y; y=diff(x)=50
What is the code that I must type to have result y=50; Thanks in advance

        Vu, I believe what you are trying to do is this:
 syms y(x)            % define y as a function of x symbolically
 L   = 5;
 y   = 5*x^2;         % define the function y
 dy  = diff(y,x);     % compute its derivative
 dyL = subs(dy,x,L)   % compute the derivative at x = L
You'd need to have access to the Symbolic Math Toolbox to run the code.
