Thanks to Hayder Alatabi for pointing out a sign error around 9:13. The backwards finite difference approximation should be [f(a)-f(a-del_x)]/del_x. I switched the first - to a +. Don't make the same mistake!

Thank you for this nice video. I think in the backward (at 9:13) it should be [f(a)-f(a-deltaX)]/deltaX

you deleted a 2 in the denominator and then didn't add it back in when you were correcting the legibility of the equation? Was that on purpose?
