Is it possible to find $n^{th}$ derivative of $frac{1}{e^{ax}+b}$ ?
I am introduced to $n^{th}$ differentiation and leibniz theorem as a first year undergraduate.
But what i observe is there are some explicit formula for the $n^{th}$ derivative of $sin x$,$cos x$,$log(ax+b)$,$frac{1}{ax+b}$, etc but why there isn't any method given for $sec x$, $csc x$ etc.
If the highlighted question can be answered then it is possible to find the $n^{th}$ derivative of secx.
How ?
$$y=sec x=frac{1}{cos x}=frac{2 e^{ix}}{e^{2ix}+1}$$
Now one can use lebniz theorem of $n^{th}$ differentiation to find the n derivative of product of two functions whose general derivative is known. Now here $e^{ix}$ whose derivative can be found easily. The latter part $frac{1}{e^{2ix+1}}$ is not known.

$$dfrac{d^n}{dx^n} f(x) = frac{a^n P_n(e^{ax})}{(e^{ax}+b)^{n+1}}$$
where $P_n$ is a polynomial of degree $n$, with
$P_0(t) = 1$ and
$$ P_{n+1}(t) = t (b + t) P_n'(t) - (n+1) t P(t)$$
