Does anybody know if Mathematica can take the first, second, and third partial derivatives of a function? If it can, how would I go about doing so?

Mathematica can indeed compute the first, second, and third partial derivatives of a function using the D function. To take partial derivatives, users can specify the variable with respect to which they want to differentiate. The syntax involves using D[function, {variable, order}] for higher-order derivatives. Users can also combine multiple variables in the differentiation process. Overall, Mathematica provides a robust tool for handling partial derivatives efficiently.
As you can see from the image here, when I graph the 2d graph of y = 5sin(1/x), it comes out like I'd expect. However, when I graph it in a 3d graph, it doesn't look right at all. Can someone tell me why it isn't displaying right, or is it and I'm just missing something when I add the z axis?
