function value = r8vec_diff_norm ( n, a, b )

%*****************************************************************************80
%
%% r8vec_diff_norm() returns the L2 norm of the difference of R8VEC's.
%
%  Discussion:
%
%    The vector L2 norm is defined as:
%
%      value = sqrt ( sum ( 1 <= I <= N ) A(I)^2 ).

%  Input:
%
%    integer N, the number of entries in A.
%
%    real A(N), B(N), the vectors.
%
%  Output:
%
%    real VALUE, the L2 norm of A - B.
%
  value = norm ( a(1:n) - b(1:n) );
