Forward Automatic Differentiation (AD) is a technique for augmenting programs to both perform their original calculation and also compute its directional derivative. The essence of Forward AD is to attach a derivative value to each number, and propagate these through the computation. When derivatives are nested, the distinct derivative calculations, and their associated attached values, must be distinguished. In dynamic languages this is typically accomplished by creating a unique tag for each application of the derivative operator, tagging the attached values, and overloading the arithmetic operators. We exhibit a subtle bug, present in fielded implementations, in which perturbations are confused despite the tagging machinery.
