    We consider several discretizations of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation which lead naturally to the study of some symmetric difference equations of the form \(\phi_{n+1}+\phi_{n-1}=f(\phi_ n)\). We find a variety of interesting and exotic behaviour from simple closed orbits to intricate patterns of orbits and loops in the \((\phi_{n+1},\phi_ n)\) phase-plane. Some analytical results for a special case are also presented.
