Higher-order differences are computed by using paddle.diff() recursively.
Only n=1 is currently supported.
The number of n supports any positive integer value.

Args:
x (Tensor): The input tensor to compute the forward difference on, the data type is float16, float32, float64, bool, int32, int64.
n (int, optional): The number of times to recursively compute the difference.
Only support n=1. Default:1
Supports any positive integer value. Default:1
axis (int, optional): The axis to compute the difference along. Default:-1
prepend (Tensor, optional): The tensor to prepend to input along axis before computing the difference.
It's dimensions must be equivalent to that of x,
