+## @deftypefnx {Function File} {} fftconv (@var{x}, @var{y}, @var{n})
+## Convolve two vectors using the FFT for computation.
+##
+## @code{c = fftconv (@var{x}, @var{y})} returns a vector of length equal to
+## @code{length (@var{x}) + length (@var{y}) - 1}.
+## If @var{x} and @var{y} are the coefficient vectors of two polynomials, the
+## returned value is the coefficient vector of the product polynomial.
+##
+## The computation uses the FFT by calling the function @code{fftfilt}. If
+## the optional argument @var{n} is specified, an N-point FFT is used.
