Question:Error, bad index into Array

Hi,

I am trying to do a simple numerical calculation, and need to evaluate functions on a grid. I woult then like to build expression like finite differences, such as

Y[ i + 1 ] - Y[ i - 1 ]

where Y is my Array of function values. However I would then always get the "Error, bad index into Array", even though in the expressions I build i is specified as a summation index over a certain range. Interestingly, indexing with an i works though within the sequence command: seq( Y[ i ], i = 1..n) would produce an output.

I am not sure what is going on.

Thanks for Help!
