Second Derivative
Your calculator lets you calculate the second derivative coeffi cient (

(
f

x
))|
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.

• All variables other than X are viewed as constants.
a
: 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
