Question

What is the derivative of `sqrt( 2)`?

Answer 1

`0`

Explanation:

`sqrt2` is simply a constant.

Since the derivative measures the rate of change of a function, a constant like `sqrt2` which never changes will have a derivative of `0`.

Don't be fooled by things like `sqrt2,pi^6/3,` or `ln2`. They are all (irrational) constants and have the same derivative as rational constants like `2,-9,` and `1/3`.
