def finite_diff(expression, variable, increment=1):

"""
|

|
Takes as input a polynomial expression and the variable used to construct
|
||
|
it and returns the difference between function's value when the input is
|
||
|
incremented to 1 and the original function value. If you want an increment
|
||
|
other than one supply it as a third argument.

Takes as input a Sum instance and returns the difference between the sum

if S(n) is a sum, then finite_diff_kauers will return S(n + 1) - S(n).
