Write down algorithm and program for the differentiating continuous function using three point formula. [5]
Differentiating continuous functions is the process of approximating the derivative f'(x) of a function f(x) when the function itself is available. The Three-Point (Central Difference) Formula is: $$f'(xp) = \frac{f(xp + h) - f(xp - h)}{2h}$$ This formula uses one point ahead and one point behind...
