Objectives
Students will learn and apply Newton’s Interpolation through theoretical
exercises, MATLAB implementation, and real-world applications.

Part. I. Theoretical calculations

Part. II. Real-world applications


Problem: Temperature Estimation at Different Times
A weather station records the temperature at specific times during the
day. However, the data is incomplete, and we need to estimate the
temperature at missing time points.
Given Data:
A weather station provides the following temperature readings:

Time (hours) Temperature (°C) Rate of Change (°C/hour)


6:00 AM (6) 12 1.667
9:00 AM (9) 17 1.667
12:00 PM (12) 22 1.333
3:00 PM (15) 25 1.000

Objective:
• Using Newton's Interpolation, estimate the temperature at 10:30 AM
(t = 10.5 hours).
Solution Approach:
• Newton's Divided Differences: Construct an interpolation polynomial
using only the temperature data.

MATLAB programing
1. Draw the flowchart of the MATLAB program implementing the Newton’s
method.
2. Write the MATLAB code to compute the interpolation and validate the
result.
General Instruction:
- Perform all calculations manually before using MATLAB.

Good Luck!
