A2: for x being Real holds (f . (x + h)) - (f . x) = 0

proof

let x be Real; :: thesis: (f . (x + h)) - (f . x) = 0
x + h in REAL by XREAL_0:def 1;
then A3: x + h in dom f by FUNCT_2:def 1;

then x in dom f by FUNCT_2:def 1;
then f . x = f . (x + h) by A1, A3, FUNCT_1:def 10;
hence (f . (x + h)) - (f . x) = 0 ; :: thesis: verum

for x being Real holds ((fdif (f,h)) . (n + 1)) . x = 0

proof

defpred S₁[ Nat] means for x being Real holds ((fdif (f,h)) . ($1 + 1)) . x = 0 ;
A4: for k being Nat st S₁[k] holds
S₁[k + 1]

proof

let k be Nat; :: thesis: ( S₁[k] implies S₁[k + 1] )
assume A5: for x being Real holds ((fdif (f,h)) . (k + 1)) . x = 0 ; :: thesis: S₁[k + 1]
let x be Real; :: thesis: ((fdif (f,h)) . ((k + 1) + 1)) . x = 0
A6: ((fdif (f,h)) . (k + 1)) . (x + h) = 0 by A5;
A7: (fdif (f,h)) . (k + 1) is Function of REAL,REAL by Th2;
((fdif (f,h)) . (k + 2)) . x = ((fdif (f,h)) . ((k + 1) + 1)) . x

hence ((fdif (f,h)) . ((k + 1) + 1)) . x = 0 ; :: thesis: verum

end;

A8: S₁[ 0 ]

proof

let x be Real; :: thesis: ((fdif (f,h)) . (0 + 1)) . x = 0
thus ((fdif (f,h)) . (0 + 1)) . x = (fD (((fdif (f,h)) . 0),h)) . x by Def6
.= (fD (f,h)) . x by Def6
.= (f . (x + h)) - (f . x) by Th3
.= 0 by A2 ; :: thesis: verum

end;

for n being Nat holds S₁[n] from NAT_1:sch 2(A8, A4);
hence for x being Real holds ((fdif (f,h)) . (n + 1)) . x = 0 ; :: thesis: verum

end;

hence for x being Real holds ((fdif (f,h)) . (n + 1)) . x = 0 ; :: thesis: verum
