A method for the computation of the effect of rough sample surfaces on diffraction intensities is described. Though the model used for the calculation is a special simple one, it is exact. The method is illustrated by its application to a surface whose boundary is a saw-tooth. Possible generalizations of the character of the surface roughness effect and how it depends on the dimensions of the surface irregularities are inferred from the calculation.
