The operations of differentiation, ordinary and central differencing, divided differencing, and forming linear combinations of the results of these, have in common the distributive, associative and commutative properties, and the further property that when performed on a general polynomial of the nth degree they produce a polynomial of the n−1th degree, while when performed on a constant they yield zero.
