3-2 Differential Calculations

To perform differential calculations, first display the function analysis menu, and
then input the values shown in the formula below.
The differentiation for this type of calculation is defined as:
In this definition, infinitesimal is replaced by a sufficiently small A
in the neighborhood of f ' (a) calculated as:
In order to provide the best precision possible, this unit employs central difference
to perform differential calculations. The following illustrates central difference.
