Consider the following function, given in recursive manner:
\begin{axiom}
N0(t|(t<0) or (t>1))==0
N0(t|(t>=0) and (t<=1))==1
N(t,i,0)==N0(t-i)
N(t,i,p|p>0)==(t-i)/p*N(t,i,p-1)+(i+1-t)/p*N(t,i+1,p-1)
\end{axiom}
This is a way to create (uniform) bsplines. Now try to differentiate $N$
\begin{axiom}
D(N(t,0,3),t)
\end{axiom}
Yack!!! This is obviously wrong!!! $t\mapsto N(t,0,3)$ is $C^2$ continuous!
