Newton's polynomial Example
edit
Another example:
The sequence
f
0
{\displaystyle f_{0}}
such that
f
0
(
1
)
=
6
,
f
0
(
2
)
=
9
,
f
0
(
3
)
=
2
{\displaystyle f_{0}(1)=6,f_{0}(2)=9,f_{0}(3)=2}
and
f
0
(
4
)
=
5
{\displaystyle f_{0}(4)=5}
, i.e., they are
6
,
9
,
2
,
5
{\displaystyle 6,9,2,5}
from
x
0
=
1
{\displaystyle x_{0}=1}
to
x
3
=
4
{\displaystyle x_{3}=4}
.
You obtain the slope of order
1
{\displaystyle 1}
in the following way:
f
1
(
x
0
,
x
1
)
=
f
0
(
x

)
−
f

(

=

{\displaystyle f_{1}(x_{0},x_{1})={\frac {f_{0}(x_{1})-f_{0}(x_{0})}{x_{1}-x_{0}}}={\frac {9-6}{2-1}}=3}
f

f

(

,
x

)
=
f

(

{\displaystyle f_{1}(x_{2},x_{3})={\frac {f_{0}(x_{3})-f_{0}(x_{2})}{x_{3}-x_{2}}}={\frac {5-2}{4-3}}=3}
As we have the slopes of order
1
{\displaystyle 1}
, it's possible to obtain the next order:
f
2
(
x
0
,
x
1
,
x
2
)
=
f
1
(
x

x

)

{\displaystyle f_{2}(x_{0},x_{1},x_{2})={\frac {f_{1}(x_{1},x_{2})-f_{1}(x_{0},x_{1})}{x_{2}-x_{0}}}={\frac {-7-3}{3-1}}=-5}
f

(
x

,
x

,
x
3
)
=
f
1
(
x

)
−
f

{\displaystyle f_{2}(x_{1},x_{2},x_{3})={\frac {f_{1}(x_{2},x_{3})-f_{1}(x_{1},x_{2})}{x_{3}-x_{1}}}={\frac {3-(-7)}{4-2}}=5}
Finally, we define the slope of order

{\displaystyle 3}
:
f

(
x
0
,
x

,
x

,
x

=

(
x

x

)
−
f

(
x

{\displaystyle f_{3}(x_{0},x_{1},x_{2},x_{3})={\frac {f_{2}(x_{1},x_{2},x_{3})-f_{2}(x_{0},x_{1},x_{2})}{x_{3}-x_{0}}}={\frac {5-(-5)}{4-1}}={\frac {10}{3}}}
Once we have the slope, we can define the consequent polynomials:
p
0
(
x
)
=
6
{\displaystyle p_{0}(x)=6}
.
p
1
(
x
)
=
6
+
3
(
x
−
1
)
{\displaystyle p_{1}(x)=6+3(x-1)}
p
2
(
x
)
=
6
+
3
(
x
−
1
)
−
5
(
x
−
1
)
(
x
−
2
)
{\displaystyle p_{2}(x)=6+3(x-1)-5(x-1)(x-2)}
.
p
3
(
x
)
=
6
+
3
(
x
−

)

(
x
−

)

x

)
+

(
x
−

)
(
x
−

)
(
x
−
3
)
{\displaystyle p_{3}(x)=6+3(x-1)-5(x-1)(x-2)+{\frac {10}{3}}(x-1)(x-2)(x-3)}
