A partial derivative is a derivative of a function of more than one
variable with respect to only one of those variables.  E.g., z = x^2 +
y^3.  The partial derivative of z w.r.t. x is 2x.  The partial of z
w.r.t. y is 3y^2.  In other words, to take the partial w.r.t one
variable, you treat all other variables as constants.  If z=xy, the the
partial of z w.r.t. y is x, and the partial of z w.r.t. x is y.
