*COMPUTE THE CURVE2-CURVE1 IN RAW OR SQUARED FORM*
==================================================

Computes the element-wise difference between Curve 2 and Curve 1 (i.e., C2 − C1) over an optional x-range, returning the violations as either raw or squared differences. Use this worker to identify where and by how much one curve deviates from a baseline curve.

Inputs

.. list-table::
   :header-rows: 1
   :widths: 20 20 20 20 20 20

   * - Label
     - ID
     - Type
     - Default
     - Required
     - Description
   * - C1-B
     - curve1
     - vector
     - —
     - 
     - Baseline curve (C1); the reference against which Curve 2 is compared — violations are computed as C2 − C1.
   * - Curve 2
     - curve2
     - vector
     - —
     - 
     - Comparison curve (C2); element-wise subtracted from Curve 1 to produce the violation signal.
   * - Xmin
     - xmin
     - scalar
     - -1e20
     - 
     - Lower x-axis bound for the violation calculation; data below this value is excluded — defaults to −1e20 (effectively no lower limit).
   * - Xmax
     - xmax
     - scalar
     - 1e20
     - 
     - Upper x-axis bound for the violation calculation; data above this value is excluded — defaults to 1e20 (effectively no upper limit).
   * - Difference Type
     - diff_type
     - scalar
     - raw
     - 
     - Form of the difference to return: 'raw' yields signed C2 − C1 values; 'squared' yields (C2 − C1)² — defaults to 'raw'.
