Interpolation

In the mathematical subfield of numerical analysis, interpolation is a procedure that assists in reading between the lines in a set of tables by constructing new data points from existing points. This rigorous presentation includes such topics as displacement symbols and differences, divided differences, formulas of interpolation, much more. 1950 edition
