title: Calculate the rate of change
seotitle: Calculate the rate of change in Flux
list_title: Rate
description: >
Use the [`derivative()` function](/flux/v0/stdlib/universe/derivative/)
to calculate the rate of change between subsequent values or the
[`aggregate.rate()` function](/influxdb/cloud/reference/flux/stdlib/experimental/aggregate/rate/)
to calculate the average rate of change per window of time.
If time between points varies, these functions normalize points to a common time interval
making values easily comparable.
