+## @deftypefnx {Function File} {} kurtosis (@var{x}, @var{dim})
+## Compute the kurtosis of the elements of the vector @var{x}.
+## @tex
+## $$
+##  {\rm kurtosis} (x) = {1\over N \sigma^4} \sum_{i=1}^N (x_i-\bar{x})^4 - 3
+## $$
+## where $\bar{x}$ is the mean value of $x$.
+## @end tex
+## @ifnottex
+##
+## @example
+## kurtosis (x) = 1/N std(x)^(-4) sum ((x - mean(x)).^4) - 3
+## @end example
+##
+## @end ifnottex
+## If @var{x} is a matrix, return the kurtosis over the
+## first non-singleton dimension of the matrix.  If the optional
+## @var{dim} argument is given, operate along this dimension.
+##
+## Note: The definition of kurtosis above yields a kurtosis of zero for the
+## stdnormal distribution and is sometimes referred to as "excess kurtosis".
+## To calculate kurtosis without the normalization factor of @math{-3} use
+## @code{moment (@var{x}, 4, 'c') / std (@var{x})^4}.
