diff(A, dims=1) should make new gridpoints staggered (?)

[mauro3]

Currently it keeps the original grid, dropping the last point.

Yeah I wasn't sure what to do here, this may be wrong/a bug.

What do you mean by staggered?

[mauro3]

Move the grid by half the grid spacing: xnew = 0.5*(x[1:end-1] .+ x[2:end]). But I'm not sure whether this is "right" in all cases, it is for my current one ;-)

[rafaqz]

Im not sure that will work for DateTime. You cant e.g. shift half months generically.

But you can hack it for your use case (not tested):

set(A, X=dims(A, X) .+ step(span(A, X))/2)

[mauro3]

Yes, it doesn't work for integer indices either (in general). So not sure what's best.

[rafaqz]

Thats pretty much why it is what it is... its hard to be consistent otherwise. But Im not sure what would be "correct" in terms if the meaning of diff.
