Does the second order differentiability always imply the first order differentiability?

If one considers the one-variable function, we have the definition




$$f''(x):=(f'(x))'$$




So the second order derivative must be first provided the existence of the first order derivative.



But if we consider the multivariable funtion, namely $f(x,y),$ and we also have the existence $displaystyle frac{partial^2f}{partial xpartial y},$ that by definition is




$$frac{partial^2f}{partial xpartial y}:=frac{partialleft(frac{partial f}{partial x}right)}{partial y}$$




So if these imply the existence of $displaystylefrac{partial f}{partial y}$?
