differentiatable

Adjective

differentiatable

1. That can be differentiated; that can be distinguished.
   • It would, in that case, have been as real as it now is, and would have been differentiable from its Maker as an effect is differentiable from its cause.1890, Randolph Sinks Foster, Studies in Theology, page 117
   • To exist, for some games, a thing must be language-operationally differentiatable from some, other things to which it may or may not usefully inter-relate: it must be a discrete entity among others.2000, Eugene E. Graziano, Language-Operational-Gestalt Awareness
2. For which a derivative or differential can be calculated.
   • A function which is differentiable wherever it is continuous is said to possess ordinary continuity.1896 August, W. Williams, “On the Convergency of Fourier's Series”, in The London, Edinburgh and Dublin Philosophical Magazine and .Journal of Science, volume 42, number 255, page 137
   • In the last equation, it has been assumed that F_(GC)[ρ] is differentiatable [see Englisch and Englisch (1984a, b) for discussion of the validity of this assumption].1989, Robert G. Parr, Yang Weitao, Density-Functional Theory of Atoms and Molecules
