This graph image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{vector version available|new image name}}. It is recommended to name the SVG file “AbsoluteErrorNumericalDifferentiationExample.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.

Details

I made this using the graphics programming language TikZ, Beamer and LaTeX

The plot displays the absolute error when computing the derivative of ${\displaystyle f(x)=x^{3}}$ (${\displaystyle f'(x)=3x^{2}}$) using a forward difference (of first order) and a centered difference (of second order),

${\displaystyle {\frac {f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}}-3x^{2}}$

for various values of ${\displaystyle x}$. The centered difference is for ${\displaystyle x=0.1}$ only.

The noisy negative slope is due to finite precision (64-bit IEEE754) in the computer used, and the positive slope is due to the formula error of the differentiation formula.
