Question.

I just wrote up an equation and subsequent proof by induction for the derivitive of x^1/2 for any (n+1)th  derivitive.

That is, you can plug in any number for N (say, 5) and get the Nth derivitive for x^1/2

My question is...has this already been published?  If not, I would like to publish it.
