equations, which describe the relationships between variables and their rates of change.
This method is commonly used in mathematics, physics, engineering, and other fields to
solve problems where analytical solutions may be challenging or impossible to obtain.
The basic idea behind finite difference is to discretize the continuous domain of a
problem into a grid of points. Instead of dealing with infinitely many points in a
continuous space, you work with a finite set of points at discrete locations. The
differential equations are then replaced by finite difference equations that approximate
the derivatives at these discrete points.
