The SpaceDerivative package contains blocks for the computation
of the derivatives with respect to space.
The derivative computation is based on Newton-Gregory backward
polynomials
where xn is the last grid point, s =
(x-xn)/h and h = xi+1 - xi (for i
= 0,..., n-1).
By using this polynomial we can compute the first and second space
derivatives, that are implemented in the
respective blocks. To compute for example the first derivative we
must do
where h = xi+1 - xi (for i = 0,..., n-1). We assume here that the grid points are spaced equally.
