  Newton polynomial - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the mathematical field of numerical analysis, a Newton polynomial, named after its inventor Isaac Newton, is the interpolation polynomial for a given set of data points in the Newton form.
The Newton polynomial is sometimes called Newton's divided differences interpolation polynomial because the coefficients of the polynomial are calculated using divided differences.
Therefore the Newton form of the interpolation polynomial is usually preferred over the Lagrange form for practical purposes.

 daily discovery: Newton's method of differences
If one took the difference between the result of a ploynomial of degree n, and took the difference of the difference and so on for n+1 number of times, the result is 0.
This means that the difference at the n level is constant.
It is this that allows difference engines to compute large degree ploynomials using addition alone.

 VB Helper: HowTo: Use Newton's method to find the roots of an equation in Visual Basic .NET
When you click on the graph, it uses Newton's method to find a root of the equation, starting from the X value that you clicked.
The way Newton's method works is it starts from an initial guess X0 (given by the point you clicked).
Newton's method uses the function's derivative to make its next X value guess.
