## @deftypefn {Function File} {@var{vpc} =} partition_coeff (@var{soft_partition})
##
## Return the partition coefficient for a given soft partition.

## The argument to partition_coeff is:
## @itemize @w

## @var{soft_partition}: the membership degree of each input data point in each cluster
## @end itemize
##
## The return value is:
## @itemize @w
## @item
## @var{vpc}: the partition coefficient for the given soft partition
## @end itemize
##
## To run demonstration code that uses this function, type "@t{demo fcm}"

## Octave prompt.
