Subject: Data Comparison Single Table Question

I can handle this outside sql, but it seems like I should be able to do this in sql as well. 

1 table: countries. 
3 columns: id, name, price

What I'm trying to get is a result of the price differences between every country.

So if the data looks like (ignoring the id field)

Taiwain 30
UK 50
US 40

I'm trying to build a matrix that looks like:
		Taiwan	UK	US
Taiwan	0		-20	-10
UK		20		0	10
US		10		-10	0

Any pointers would be appreciated.

Bryan
