Hi Oscar,

Thanks for the answer. I was trying to find the values of w1, w2 from loss2 
(starting with calculation of all partial derivatives). Are you suggesting 
not to work on the matrix in loss2?

I know how the problem can be tackled through numerical differentiation 
(gradient descent), but I was trying to use symbolic computation. Do you 
know of a similar task already solved via symbolic computation (and 
available online)?
