Let, given a set of equidistant values of arguments and its corresponding value of f(x) Suppose for n + 1 equidistant argument values x = a, a + h, a + 2h, , a + nh, are given.
Trang 2y= f(x) = f(x0), f(x1), f(x2) , f(a + nh) i.e., f(x n).
Let one of the value of f(x) is missing Say it f(i) To determine this missing value of f(x), assume that f(x) can be represented by a polynomial of degree (n – 1) since n values of f(x) are
known
Hence,∆n−1f x( ) = constant and ∆n f x( ) 0=
Therefore, (E – I) n f(x) = 0 because ∆ = E – 1

In equation (1), except missing term, each term is known and hence from this way missing term can be obtained
If two values of f(x) are mssing then in that case only (n – 1) values of f(x) can be given by
a polynomial of degree (n –2) i.e.,∆n−1f x( ) 0= or (E –1) n–1 f(x) = 0.
This gives for x = 0, (the first tabulated value) and for x = 1, (second tabulated value) and
by solving these two we get the two missing values for given function f(x) Similarly method proceeds to find three and more missing terms in given function f(x).

i.e., f x( + −4) 4 (f x+ +3) 6 (f x+ −2) 4 (f x+ +1) f x( ) 0, = ∀x

Putting the value of f(8), f(7), f(6), f(4), f(2), f(1) in equation (1) and (2), we get

On solving these two, we get f(3) = 27 and f(5) = 125.

The relation E = 1 + ∆ ⇒ E n = (1 + ∆)n has been used to express E n y x in terms of y x and its differences (1+∆)n has been expanded by binomial theorem without using y x in it Such methods
of operations are known as method of separation of symbols Point to be noted that the operations

yx+nh = E n y x = (1 + ∆)n y x

= y x + n C1∆yx + n C2∆2y x+
This type of operation in which we separate the operand from operator is called separation
