%DIFF2 First-order difference
%
% D = DIFF2(V) is the first-order difference (1xN) of the series data in 
% vector V (1xN) and the first element is zero.
%
% D = DIFF2(A) is the first-order difference (MxN) of the series data in 
% each row of the matrix A (MxN) and the first element in each row is zero.
%
% Notes::
% - Unlike the builtin function DIFF, the result of DIFF2 has the same
%   number of columns as the input.
