Increment and maximum
Syntax: |
GENERATE x min inc max
|
If the increment and the maximum value are given, the number of points will be ignored. The formula:
x[i] = min+(i-1)*inc
for i=[1;2;3;...]
will be applied until the next value would be greater than the specified maximum. If the calculated maximum is different than the given maximum, a warning message will be displayed. The calculated maximum will be the last value stored in the vector.
For example, suppose you enter the command:
GENERATE X -1 .41 1
the vector X
will be [-1;-0.59;-0.18;0.23;0.64]
. The warning message:
GENERATE warning: calculated maximum = 0.64000000E+00
given maximum = 0.10000000E+01
will be displayed.
