We are given the probability density function of a t-distribution t(µ, 1) (shown in attached image): The task is to Write down the log-likelihood function of 200 samples, derive the first and second derivative of the log likelihood function with respect to µ. I got log-likihood function for 200 sampes and the first derivative, but am having trouble figuring how to get the second derivative.
