(1) Use Newton forward difference formula to construct interpolating polynomial. Approx-
imate the specified value of each of the polynomials.
(a). f (0.25) if f (0.1) = −0.62049958, f (0.2) = −0.28398668, f (0.3) = 0.00660095, f (0.4)
= 0.24842440
(b). f ( −1

) if f (−0.75) = −0.07181250, f (−0.5) = −0.02475000, f (−0.25) = 0.33493750,
f (0) = 1.10100000.

(2) Use Newton backward difference formula to construct interpolating polynomial. Ap-
proximate the specified value of each of the polynomials.
