Gregory-Newton Forward Difference Formula: Also known as
The Gregory-Newton forward difference formula is also known as:
- the Newton-Gregory forward difference formula
- Newton's forward difference formula
- the forward difference formula
and so on.
Some sources refer to this as Gregory-Newton interpolation, but this is used on $\mathsf{Pr} \infty \mathsf{fWiki}$ to encompass the Gregory-Newton backward difference formula as well.
