function y = medfilt1(x,n,blksz)
%MEDFILT1  One dimensional median filter.
%	Y = MEDFILT1(X,N) returns the output of the order N, one dimensional 
%	median filtering of vector X.  Y is the same length as X; for the edge
%	points, zeros are assumed to the left and right of X. 
%
%	For N odd, Y(k) is the median of X( k-(N-1)/2 : k+(N-1)/2 ).
%	For N even, Y(k) is the median of X( k-N/2 : k+N/2-1 ).
%
%	If you do not specify N, MEDFILT1 uses a default of N = 3.
%
%	MEDFILT1(X,N,BLKSZ) uses a for-loop to compute BLKSZ ("block size") 
%	output samples at a time.  Use this option with BLKSZ << LENGTH(X) if 
%	you are low on memory (MEDFILT1 uses a working matrix of size
%	N x BLKSZ).  By default, BLKSZ == LENGTH(X); this is the fastest
%	execution if you have the memory for it.
%
%	See MEDFILT2 in the Image Processing Toolbox for 2D median filtering.
