shift

 SYNOPSIS
  Shift the elements of a 1-d array

 USAGE
  Array_Type shift (Array_Type A, Int_Type n)

 DESCRIPTION
 The `shift' function shifts the elements of an array by a specified amount
 and returns the result.  If `n' is positive, the ith element of the array
 will be shifted to the position `i-n' of the array.  Elements for
 which `i-n' is less than 0 will be moved to the end of the array.

 EXAMPLE

   A = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9];
   B = shift (A, 3);          % ==> B = [4,5,6,7,8,9,1,2,3];
   C = shift (A, -1);         % ==> C = [9,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8];


 NOTES
 It many ways `rotate' would be a better name for this function.

 SEE ALSO
  reverse, transpose
