-This is an Octave function.
-This function computes the minimum filter order of a Butterworth filter with the desired response characteristics.
-The filter frequency band edges are specified by the passband frequency wp and stopband frequency ws.
-Frequencies are normalized to the Nyquist frequency in the range [0,1].
-Rp is measured in decibels and is the allowable passband ripple, and Rs is also in decibels and is the minimum attenuation in the stop band.
-If ws>wp, the filter is a low pass filter. If wp>ws, the filter is a high pass filter.
-If wp and ws are vectors of length 2, then the passband interval is defined by wp the stopband interval is defined by ws.
-If wp is contained within the lower and upper limits of ws, the filter is a band-pass filter. If ws is contained within the lower and upper limits of wp the filter is a band-stop or band-reject filter.
