Question: differentiate in Series

Hi everyone

I have a problem with differentiating an equation. I have the following code:


(sum((x(i)-M)^3, i = 1 .. n))/(n*((sum((x(i)-M)^2, i = 1 .. n))/(n-1))^(3/2));


The values of x(i) is available in Excel and I want to import that. For this case, I copy the column and paste in maple and it seems work fine. But, I want to calculate the differentiate of the summation with respect to x(i) and M and find the answer. I don't know how to write the code appropriately.

In other words, how could I differetiate the following function with respect to x(i) and put the values from excel into it.

(sum((x(i)-M)^3, i = 1 .. n))/(n*((sum((x(i)-M)^2, i = 1 .. n))/(n-1))^(3/2));

 

Thank you so much for your kind attentions  in advance
