%PDERIV   Derivative of smooth periodic function
%   Usage:  fd=pderiv(f);
%           fd=pderiv(f,dim);
%           fd=pderiv(f,dim,difforder);
%
%   PDERIV(f) will compute the derivative of f using a using a 4th order
%   centered finite difference scheme. f must have been obtained by a
%   regular sampling. If f is a matrix, the derivative along the columns
%   will be found.
%
%   PDERIV(f,dim) will do the same along dimension dim.
%
%   PDERIV(f,dim,difforder) uses a centered finite difference scheme of
%   order difforder instead of the default.
%
%   PDERIV(f,dim,Inf) will compute the spectral derivative using a DFT.
%
%   PDERIV assumes that f is a regular sampling of a function on the
%   torus [0,1). The derivative of a function on a general torus [0,T)
%   can be found by scaling the output by 1/T.
