Roll Your Own Differentiation Filters
Practical guide to constructing differentiation filters from sampled signals using interpolation rather than messy Taylor expansions. It shows how Lagrange polynomials produce forward, backward and central derivative formulas, and how the pseudospectral differentiation matrix D = X'X^{-1} maps sample vectors to derivative estimates. Includes a compact MATLAB snippet and a discussion of node-choice tradeoffs and ill-conditioning for large N.
