How can I create a linspace with a condition

Hi

I want to create a linspace with a condition for the spacing, so that the spacing has a maximum allowed value. For example, if the spacing gets to high the function creates more points. Is this possible?

Hi,

if you know the maximum allowed spacing you can use:

function result = mySpacing(StartValue,EndValue,maxSpaceValue)
result = linspace(StartValue,EndValue,ceil((EndValue-StartValue)/maxSpaceValue+1)); 
end

This will ensure that the spacing is always smaller or equal to the given argument:

result1 = mySpacing(1,2,0.12)

result1 =

  Columns 1 through 9

    1.0000    1.1111    1.2222    1.3333    1.4444    1.5556    1.6667    1.7778    1.8889

  Column 10

    2.0000
    

    
result2 = mySpacing(0,2,0.15)

result2 =

  Columns 1 through 9

         0    0.1429    0.2857    0.4286    0.5714    0.7143    0.8571    1.0000    1.1429

  Columns 10 through 15

    1.2857    1.4286    1.5714    1.7143    1.8571    2.0000
    


result3 = mySpacing(0,2,0.5)

result3 =

         0    0.5000    1.0000    1.5000    2.0000

Best regards
