Second Derivative

Your calculator lets you calculate the second derivative coeffi cient (

(

f

(

))|

x

=

a

) for

f

(

x

)

where

x

=

a

. Your calculator uses approximation based on the second order value differential

equation of the Newton interpolation polynomial. Calculation is performed using the function
shown below.

(Input the function used by variable X.)

• All variables other than X are viewed as constants.

Value of point (second derivative point) of desired second derivative

coeffi cient

tol

: Error tolerance range (Can be input only when linear display is being used.)

• This parameter can be omitted. In that case, a tolerance of 1 × 10
