-Description: FIXME
+Description: automatic forward differentiation in Octave
+ Automatic Differentiation (AD) is a technique to analytically compute
+ the derivative of a function at a given inner point of its domain.
+ It overcomes the accuracy and efficiency problems related to the
+ method of finite differences. This pacakge implements the AD
+ algorithms in Octave, a numerical computation software.
+ .
+ This Octave add-on package is part of the Octave-Forge project.
