## @deftypefn  {Function File} {} flip (@var{x})
## @deftypefnx {Function File} {} flip (@var{x}, @var{dim})
## Flip array across specific dimension.
##
## Return a copy of @var{x} flipped about the dimension @var{dim}.
## @var{dim} defaults to the first non-singleton dimension.
## For example:
##
## @example
## @group
## flip ([1  2  3  4])
##       @result{}  4  3  2  1
## @end group
##
## @group
## flip ([1; 2; 3; 4])
##       @result{}  4
##           3
##           2
##           1
## @end group
##
## @group
## flip ([1 2; 3 4])
##       @result{}  3  4
##           1  2
## @end group
##
## @group
## flip ([1 2; 3 4], 2)
##       @result{}  2  1
##           4  3
## @end group
