  • divided difference

       Topics for Discussion:

          o Divided difference interpolation

          o Divided difference extrapolation

       Expected Learning Outcomes:

          o Newton's divided difference interpolation formula is a interpolation technique used when the interval  
             difference is not same for all sequence of values 

          o Extrapolation is an estimation of a value based on extending a known sequence of values or facts beyond 
             the area that is certainly known. In a general sense, to extrapolate is to infer something that is not explicitly  
             stated from existing information.
