Newton's Backward Difference Formula
math.iitm.ac.in › caimna › interpolationThis polynomial is called the Newton - Gregory backward difference formula. The error in this interpolation Example : Find f (0.15) using Newton backward difference table from the data s = ( x - xn ) / h = (0.15 - 0.5) / 0.1 = -3.5 = 0.97943 - 0.315 - 0.01706 + 0.000765625 + 0.00033086 = 0.14847 Error in the approximation = 2.734375 x 10-7 f5( x)
