## usage: y = decimate(x, q [, n] [, ftype])
##
## Downsample the signal x by a factor of q, using an order n filter
## of ftype 'fir' or 'iir'.  By default, an order 8 Chebyshev type I
## filter is used or a 30 point FIR filter if ftype is 'fir'.  Note
## that q must be an integer for this rate change method.
##
## Example
##    ## Generate a signal that starts away from zero, is slowly varying
##    ## at the start and quickly varying at the end, decimate and plot.
##    ## Since it starts away from zero, you will see the boundary
##    ## effects of the antialiasing filter clearly.  Next you will see
##    ## how it follows the curve nicely in the slowly varying early
##    ## part of the signal, but averages the curve in the quickly
##    ## varying late part of the signal.
##    t=0:0.01:2; x=chirp(t,2,.5,10,'quadratic')+sin(2*pi*t*0.4)
##    y = decimate(x,4);   # factor of 4 decimation
##    stem(t(1:121)*1000,x(1:121),"-g;Original;"); hold on; # plot original
##    stem(t(1:4:121)*1000,y(1:31),"-r;Decimated;"); hold off; # decimated
