</HEAD>
<BODY BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF" TEXT="#000000">
<P><font size="+3" color="green"><B>Increment and maximum</B></font></P>
<TABLE border="1" cols="2" frame="box" rules="all" width="572">
<TR>
<TD width="15%" valign="top"><B>Syntax</B>:</TD>
<TD width="85%" valign="top"><CODE>
GENERATE x min inc max</CODE>
</TD></TR>
</TABLE>
<P>
If the increment and the maximum value are given, the number of points
will be ignored. The formula:</p>
<p>
<center><CODE>x[i] = min+(i-1)*inc</CODE> for <CODE>i=[1;2;3;...]
</CODE></center></p>
<p>
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.</p>
<p>
For example, suppose you enter the command:</p>
<p>
<CODE><font color="blue">GENERATE X -1 .41 1</font></CODE></p>
<p>
the vector <code>X</code> will be <CODE>[-1;-0.59;-0.18;0.23;0.64]</CODE>. The warning message:<br />
<font color="orange"><pre>
GENERATE warning: calculated maximum = 0.64000000E+00
given maximum = 0.10000000E+01
</pre></font>
will be displayed.</p>
