Undefined function 'diff' for input arguments of type 'cfit'.

% How do I differentiate the f function so as to get a change in slope graph.
L = 152.4;
b = 76;
d = 12.5;
data = readmatrix('H-3point_63_1.csv');
displacement = data(:,2);
force = data(:,3);

% Cleaning the Data
corr_val = find(force<0|force==0);
if corr_val>0
val = max(corr_val)+1;
else 
val = 1;
end

% Plotting Raw Data
plot(displacement(val:end),force(val:end),'-or')
xlabel('Displacement (mm)')
ylabel('Force (kN)')

% Finding and plotting peak force
peakforce = max(force(val:end));
A = find(force == peakforce);
B = max(A);
hold on 
plot(displacement(B),force(B),'r*')

% Flexural Strength
sigma = 3*peakforce*L/(2*b*(d^2));

% Curve Fitting
f=fit(displacement(val:end),force(val:end),'poly6');
plot(f,'b')

% Slope
df = diff(f);

I have used the MATLAB addon called Curve Fitting. Please help me with this small doubt.

Thank you so much.

maybe u can use differentiate function.

@家 I suggested differentiate() four years ago.

differentiate() not diff()

You will need to pass in the locations to differentiate at.
