Finite differences is a numerical method used to approximate derivatives of functions. It involves the use of discrete data points to estimate rates of change, which is particularly useful in fields such as numerical analysis, computer science, and engineering. The basic idea behind finite differences is to replace the continuous derivative of a function with a discrete approximation.
