Define interpolation in your own words.
Think about why we need it.
What is the forward difference formula?
Consider the change between points.
What is interpolation?
Think about its application in real-world scenarios.
Newton's Forward Interpolation is used when the x value is near the beginning of the dataset.
Recall the specific conditions for using Newton's method.
Given the data points (1,2), (2,3), (4,5), use Newton's Divided Differences to find f(3).
Remember how to calculate each divided difference.
Estimate the error in interpolation for the estimated f(2.5) using the error term for Newton's method.
Focus on how you derive and apply the error term.
