What is the best way to numerically solve hyperbolic equation?

What is the best way to numerically solve the transport equation like(the least numerical diffusion phenomenon):

df/dt+v df/dx=0

 Thank you

 

Generally the finite difference method works well for such equations.

Also, depending on the complexity of your boundary conditions, analytical solution (e.g. using Laplace Transform technique) may be available.
