For what it's worth, \frac{\partial}{\partial x} (y^x) = y^x \ln(y).

Poor Mr. y^x would be pooped out a different size if y > 1 (although remain the same size in the special case where y = e), become mauled and eaten if y = 1, become negative and pooped out a different size if 0 < y < 1, or become complex if y < 0 (and who knows what that would be like).

[Edit: Deleted the whole y = 0 possibility. That doesn't even make any sense in the first place.]
