## Return the unique elements in @var{a} that are not in @var{b}.
##
## If @var{a} is a row vector return a row vector; Otherwise, return a
## column vector.  The inputs may also be cell arrays of strings.
##
## If the optional input @qcode{"rows"} is given then return the rows in
## @var{a} that are not in @var{b}.  The inputs must be 2-D numeric matrices to
## use this option.
##
## The optional argument @qcode{"sorted"}/@qcode{"stable"} controls the order
## in which unique values appear in the output.  The default is
## @qcode{"sorted"} and values in the output are placed in ascending order.
## The alternative @qcode{"stable"} preserves the order found in the input.
##
## If requested, return the index vector @var{ia} such that
## @code{@var{c} = @var{a}(@var{ia})}.
##
## Programming Note: The input flag @qcode{"legacy"} changes the algorithm
## to be compatible with @sc{matlab} releases prior to R2012b.
