Finite difference is a numerical method used to approximate solutions to differential equations by discretizing the equations and evaluating them at specific points. It is commonly applied in numerical analysis, engineering, and scientific computing to estimate derivatives and solve problems involving functions defined on discrete sets of points. In the context of approximating derivatives, the finite difference method works by replacing the derivatives in the differential equation with finite difference approximations.
