Split difference method to determine the polynomial function that models the first few given terms of a sequence

When looking at a sequence of numbers, one that can be defined by a polynomial function of a natural number degree, one most commonly would use a difference table to find the degree followed by a system of equations to find the equation that models the sequence. This method can prove to be very time...
