+## @deftypefn {Function File} {} hilb (@var{n})
+## Return the Hilbert matrix of order @var{n}.  The @math{i,j} element
+## of a Hilbert matrix is defined as
+## @tex
+## $$
+## H(i, j) = {1 \over (i + j - 1)}
+## $$
+## @end tex
+## @ifnottex
+##
+## @example
+## H(i, j) = 1 / (i + j - 1)
+## @end example
+##
+## @end ifnottex
+##
+## Hilbert matrices are close to being singular which make them difficult to
+## invert with numerical routines.
+## Comparing the condition number of a random matrix 5x5 matrix with that of
+## a Hilbert matrix of order 5 reveals just how difficult the problem is.
+##
+## @example
+## @group
+## cond (rand (5))
+##    @result{} 14.392
+## cond (hilb (5))
+##    @result{} 4.7661e+05
+## @end group
+## @end example
