From help-octave-request at bevo dot che dot wisc dot edu Thu Jan 10 04:20:05 2002 Subject: Re: logarithmic steps in for From: Lorenzo To: help-octave at bevo dot che dot wisc dot edu Cc: Ignacio Mas Ivars Date: Thu, 10 Jan 2002 11:15:06 +0100 Just a question which maybe can turn to be useful to Nacho and to anyone interested. I usually prefer to LOGSPACE the form base .^ [usual linear range] or base .^ linspace This is exactly what LOGSPACE does (except for controlling input values), but it allows base != 10 and in my opinion gives you better understanding of what you are doing. Which are the drawbacks against doing this? Lorenzo BTW. Probably Ignacio wanted 70 steps (10 in each group...), so: logspace(-5,2,70) or 10.^[ -5 : .1 : 2 ] 09/01/02 23.04.37, Paul Kienzle ha scritto: >for x=logspace(-5,2,10) > ... > >Paul Kienzle >pkienzle at users dot sf dot net > >On Wed, Jan 09, 2002 at 03:12:00PM -0600, Ignacio Mas Ivars wrote: >> >> >> Hi!! >> >> Is there a way to define a range of values for a 'for' loop with logarithmic >> steps?
