About this document

Finite Difference Approximations Guide by Atoy Valdez is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document lists and compares several common difference approximations for estimating the first and second derivatives of a function from discrete data points. For the first derivative, it provides six different difference approximations with truncation errors ranging from O(h) to O(h4) and notes whether they are one-sided or two-sided. For the second derivative, it lists five approximations with truncation errors from O(h) to O(h4) and indicates the number of points used. It highlights that the two-side
