hello, I can’t find a solution to the following problem: i am trying to solve symbolically some equations which include partial derivatives and a change of reference.
Here is the code:

syms Cf(zf, zr) Cr(zf, zr) theta z L
z = zf;
theta = (zf – zr)/L;
Cf_z = diff(Cf, z);
Cf_f = diff(Cf, zf);
Cf_r = diff(Cf, zr);
Cf_theta = diff(Cf, theta);
eqn = [diff(Cf, z)*diff(z, zf) + diff(Cf, theta)*diff(theta, zf) == diff(Cf, zf), diff(Cf, z)*diff(z, zr) + diff(Cf, theta)*diff(theta, zr) == diff(Cf, zr)];
S= solve(eqn)

when i run this, the following error appears:
"Second argument must be a variable or a nonnegative integer specifying the number of differentiations." (@ line 7) because i doesn’t recognize theta as a variable of Cf. How can i make the change of reference effective so that it can calculate the partial derivatives of Cf in the new reference z, theta?
