Foil 11 Central Difference Operator with error O(h2)

From Fox Presentation Fall 1995 CPS615 Basic Simulation Track for Computational Science -- Fall Semester 95. by Geoffrey C. Fox
Solve previous equation for 2nd derivative
Combine with similar equation in y direction
Backward difference operator and forward difference operator are O(h)
Higher order operators use more points on the grid (larger stencil) and are more accurate
