% @deftypefn {Function File} {@var{area} =} rectint (@var{a}, @var{b})
%
% Compute the area of intersection of rectangles in @var{a} and
% rectangles in @var{b}. Rectangles are defined as [x y width height]
% where x and y are the minimum values of the two orthogonal
% dimensions.
%
% If @var{a} or @var{b} are matrices, then the output, @var{area}, is a
% matrix where the i-th row corresponds to the i-th row of a and the j-th
% column corresponds to the j-th row of b.
