17 ## usage: diff (x [, k])
18 ##
19 ## If x is a vector of length n, diff (x) is the vector of first
20 ## differences x(2) - x(1), ..., x(n) - x(n-1).
21 ##
22 ## If x is a matrix, diff (x) is the matrix of column differences.
23 ## diff (x, k), where k is a nonnegative integer, returns the k-th
24 ## differences.
