Sum of Cubes via Difference Tables

https://leancrew.com/all-this/images2026/20260719-Difference%20table%20in%20Numbers.png
Yesterday I watched the most recent Numberphile video, in which Ben Sparks explains a few finite series and the equations that simplify the calculation of their sums. He derives the formulas graphically, and it’s all very cleverly done, especially the one for the sum of cubes. N=∑m=1nm3 As I said, Ben’s graphical method is really clever and easy to understand, and it leads to this expression: ...
