Function for equally spaced points

[terryhendicott]

Hi,

Function for evenly spaced points in Mathcad 11 or later.  Can easily be written for Prime.

Nice, but you're forgetting those that use ORIGIN=1, and the poor Prime Express users.

Mathcad 11 and Prime 4 files attached. They now contain the corrected version (see below). Thanks Terry!

Success!

Nice idea, Luc, but unfortunately it does not work in current versions of Mathcad (Mathcad 15)

[Werner_E]

Here is a workaround

Nice work-around. It does not work in Mathcad 11, however, like so many other things that work in one, but not in the other.

I guess it won't work in Prime Express, either, because local assignment means programming and is considered premium feature. But in Prime the workaround is not necessary anyway as your original approach works OK there and "max" is accepted as a valid function.

BTW, I guess I never would have thought of to create the vector the simple way you did - ingenious!

Hi,

The use of ORIGIN means that both limits of the range expression need ORIGIN in them.

Have not used the Mathcad 15 workround of Werner.

Cheers

You are completely right. Origin must be added to n as well.

Where's the list of indexes...?

[rgunwaldsen]

But who really needs indices when its always ORIGIN..n+ORIGIN?

[LucMeekes]

Ask Terry, he defined what the function should do...
