## @deftypefn {Function File} {} norm (@var{a}, @var{p})
## Compute the p-norm of the matrix @var{a}. If the second argument is
## missing, @code{p = 2} is assumed.
##
## If @var{a} is a matrix:
##
## @table @asis
## @item @var{p} = @code{1}
## 1-norm, the largest column sum of @var{a}.
##
## @item @var{p} = @code{2}
## Largest singular value of @var{a}.
##
## @item @var{p} = @code{Inf}
## @cindex infinity norm
## Infinity norm, the largest row sum of @var{a}.
##
## @item @var{p} = @code{"fro"}
## @cindex Frobenius norm
## Frobenius norm of @var{a}, @code{sqrt (sum (diag (@var{a}' * @var{a})))}.
## @end table
##
## If @var{a} is a vector or a scalar:
##
## @table @asis
## @item @var{p} = @code{Inf}
## @code{max (abs (@var{a}))}.
##
## @item @var{p} = @code{-Inf}
## @code{min (abs (@var{a}))}.
##
## @item other
## p-norm of @var{a}, @code{(sum (abs (@var{a}) .^ @var{p})) ^ (1/@var{p})}.
