Prompt

Find the derivative of f(x) = x * sin(x) using the product rule.

Zero-point index (what the engine surfaced)

Baseline response (no ZPI)

```csharp using System; class Program { static void Main() { // Define the function Func<double, double> f = x => x * Math.Sin(x); // Calculate the derivative using the product rule Func<double, double> f_prime = x => Math.Sin(x) + x * Math.Cos(x); // Print the derivative Console.WriteLine("f'(x) = sin(x) + x*cos(x)"); } } ```

Enhanced response (with ZPI)

```csharp using System; public class DerivativeCalculator { public static string CalculateDerivative(string function) { // Define the function and its components string f = "x"; string g = "sin(x)"; // Calculate the derivatives of f and g string fPrime = "1"; // derivative of x is 1 string gPrime = "cos(x)"; // derivative of sin(x) is cos(x) // Apply the product rule string derivative = $"({fPrime} * {g}) + ({f} * {gPrime})"; return derivative; } public static void Main() { string function = "x * sin(x)"; string derivative = CalculateDerivative(function); Console.WriteLine($"The derivative of {function} is: {derivative}"); } } ``` The derivative of f(x) = x * sin(x) using the product rule is: (1 * sin(x)) + (x * cos(x)).

Grader chain

Each grader reads the same baseline + enhanced pair and casts an independent verdict. Disagreement is the framework's own signal — not noise to be averaged away.
