A New Insight of the Shortley-Weller Approximation for Dirichlet Problems

  • Conference paper

Abstract

The method of finite differences is one of fundamental techniques for solving boundary value problems of ordinary and partial differential equations, where ordinary and partial derivatives are replaced by divided differences.
