In our last workshop, we created &#8211; almost from scratch &#8211; a spreadsheet to compare the forward, backward and central divided difference approximations for the first derivative of a simple function. We started with FDA_BDA_CDA Exercise.xls, which had some of the basic text, but no formulas, and went from there. The objective was to get a sense for what it takes to create such a spreadsheet. This workshop looks at how to re-use that spreadsheet. Future workshops will cover more specialized and power numerical computing tools.<\/p>\n<p>Re-using Numerical Differentiation Work<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/s\/bq2lgpr31ik2eq9\/Differentiation_Spreadsheet_ReUse_13-14s2.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Instructions<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/s\/kn9zrxtnt3etqju\/FDA_BDA_CDA%20Demo.xls\" target=\"_blank\">FDA_BDA_CDA Demo.xls<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Re-using Root Finding Work<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/s\/f2iibmjnhgoddpj\/Root_Finding_Spreadsheet_Guide_13-14s2.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Instructions<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/s\/f3ftev7zsd3uboz\/Root_Finding.ods\" target=\"_blank\">Root_Finding.ods<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Last weeks <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/s\/yjcw4zjjhdpb4b6\/Differentiation_Spreadsheet_Exercise_13-14s2.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">instructions<\/a> and <a title=\"MAT210 Workshop 13th-14th May\" href=\"http:\/\/www.sjut.org\/math\/index.php\/mat210-2014-05-13\/\">post<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We saw that a spreadsheet is a reasonably easy way to perform numerical differentiation.
