Faà di Bruno's Formula

Theorem
Let $D_x^k u$ denote the $k$th derivative of a function $u$ $x$.

Then:
 * $\displaystyle D_x^n w = \sum_{j \mathop = 0}^n D_u^j w \sum_{\substack {\sum_{p \mathop \ge 0} k_p \mathop = j \\ \sum_{p \mathop \ge 0} p k_p \mathop = n \\ \forall p \ge 0: k_p \mathop \ge 0} } n! \prod_{m \mathop = 0}^n \dfrac {\left({D_x^m u}\right)^{k_m} } {k_m! \left({m!}\right)^{k_m} }$
