Finite Difference Schemes of One Variable

Finite difference formulas are generated for a specified number of equally spaced nodes, a derivative node, and the order of the derivative.
The terms , , denotes the function values , , , and so on; is the distance between two nodes.

The classical Taylor series method is used. For details see the textbook:
