<blockquote><p>This function evaluates all B-spline basis function derivatives of orders
0 through nderiv (inclusive) at the position <var>x</var>
and stores them in the matrix <var>dB</var>. The (i,j)-th element of <var>dB</var>
is d^jB_i(x)/dx^j. The matrix <var>dB</var> must be
of size n = nbreak + k - 2 by nderiv + 1.
The value n may also be obtained
by calling <code>gsl_bspline_ncoeffs</code>. Note that function evaluations
are included as the zeroth order derivatives in <var>dB</var>.
Computing all the basis function derivatives at once is more efficient
than computing them individually, due to the nature of the defining
recurrence relation.

<blockquote><p>This function evaluates all potentially nonzero B-spline basis function
derivatives of orders 0 through nderiv (inclusive) at
the position <var>x</var> and stores them in the matrix <var>dB</var>. The
(i,j)-th element of <var>dB</var> is <!-- {$d^jB_{(istart+i)}(x)/dx^j$} -->
d^j/dx^j B_(istart+i)(x). The last row
of <var>dB</var> contains <!-- {$d^jB_{iend}(x)/dx^j$} -->
d^j/dx^j B_(iend)(x). The matrix <var>dB</var> must be
of size k by at least nderiv + 1. Note that function
evaluations are included as the zeroth order derivatives in <var>dB</var>.
By returning only the nonzero basis functions, this function allows
quantities involving linear combinations of the B_i(x) and
their derivatives to be computed without unnecessary terms.
