(Continuation) From the following table of values of ln x, interpolate to obtain ln 2.352 and ln 2.387 using the Newton forward difference form of the interpolating polynomial:

Using the correctly rounded values ln 2.352 ≈ 0.85527 and ln 2.387 ≈ 0.87004, show that the forward-difference formula is more accurate near the top of the table than it is near the bottom.
