Differentiation and Function Analysis

The video tutorial by Any the Magic Monk explains how to differentiate exponential functions using the product rule. It provides a detailed walkthrough of differentiating the function y = x^2 * e^(-2x) and simplifies the result. The tutorial also includes a practice problem involving the differentiation of y = x^2 * e^(cos(x)), encouraging viewers to apply the learned concepts.
