Backwards compatibility ensures that your newly purchased item ie. A USB 2.0 3G Dongle can be plugged into an older pc system that may only support USB 1.0. This ideology applies to most hardware or software issues. Forward compatibility or future proofing is at best a guess or a guarantee that the tech will work with the next definite standard as for any far reaching guarantees, well remember betamax?

What is the difference between forward difference and backward difference?
Given an infinitely convergent sequence pn with limit p, the forward difference is the measure of the difference between the current term and he next. The backward difference is the measure of the difference between the current term and the previous.i.e.forward difference: Δpn=pn+1 - pnbackward difference: ∇pn=pn - pn-1Also, note that since they are both expressed by pn, the forward difference is recognised by the use of a delta before the pn, and the backward difference by the use of a nabla.
