At first, we sample $$f(x)$$ in the \(N\) ($N$ is odd) equidistant points around \(x^*\):
\[
f_k = f(x_k),\: x_k = x^*+kh,\: k=-\frac{N-1}{2},\dots,\frac{N-1}{2}
\]
where \(h\) is some step.
Then we interpolate points \((x_k,f_k)\) by polynomial
\begin{equation}
\label{eq:poly} \tag{1}
P_{N-1}(x)=\sum_{j=0}^{N-1}{a_jx^j}
\end{equation}
Its coefficients \(a_j\) are found as a solution of system of linear equations:
\begin{equation} \label{eq:sys} \tag{asdf}
\left\{ P_{N-1}(x_k) = f_k\right\},\quad k=-\frac{N-1}{2},\dots,\frac{N-1}{2}
\end{equation}
\begin{equation} \label{eq:sys2} \tag{asdf2}
\{ P_{N-1}(x_k) = f_k\},\quad k=-\frac{N-1}{2},\dots,\frac{N-1}{2}
\end{equation}
