Abstract
In this paper, we generalize the extended tanh-function approach, which used to find new exact travelling wave solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations (NPDES) or coupled nonlinear partial differential equations, to nonlinear differential-difference equations (NDDES). As illustration, we discuss some Toda lattice equations, and solitary wave and periodic wave solutions of these Toda lattice equations are obtained by means of the extended tanh-function approach.
