Estimate the first derivative of f

Reference no: EM13210714

Write a script newquot.m that uses the Newton quotient, [f (x + h) - f (x)]/h, to estimate the first derivative of f (x) = x3 at x = 1, using successively smaller values of h: 1, 10-1, 10-2, and so forth. Use a function M-file for f (x).
