The calculation of a linear range allows you to create a sequence of equally spaced numbers between two specified values. This type of calculation is frequently used in numerical and statistical analyses to generate samples, define analysis intervals, or for data visualization purposes.
To perform the calculation, three input parameters are needed:
The formula used divides the total interval between the Upper Value and the Lower Value by the desired Number of Points, thus producing a linear series of values.
If the Lower Value is 0, the Upper Value is 10, and the Number of Points is 5, the generated values would be: 0, 2.5, 5, 7.5, and 10.
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
Lower Value | Number | The start of the range. |
Upper Value | Number | The end of the range. |
Number of Points | Number | The number of values in the series. |
Output | Series | The generated series of values. |
