graduate          Scilab Group          Scilab Function            graduate
NAME
   graduate - pretty axis graduations
  
CALLING SEQUENCE
 [xi,xa,np]=graduate( xmi, xma,n1,n2) 
 [xi,xa,np]=graduate( xmi, xma)
PARAMETERS
 xmi,xma    : real scalars
            
 n1, n2     : integers with default values 3,10
            
 xi, xa     :real scalars
            
 np         : integer
            
DESCRIPTION
   graduate looks for the minimum interval [xi,xa] and a number of tics  np
  such that:
  
   xi <= xmi <= xma <= xa
  
   xa - xi / np  =  k(10^n),k in [1 3 5]  for an integer n
  
   n1 < np < n2
  
EXAMPLE
   y=(0:0.33:145.78)';
   xbasc();plot2d1('enn',0,y)
   [ymn,ymx,np]=graduate(mini(y),maxi(y))
   rect=[1,ymn,prod(size(y)),ymx];
   xbasc();plot2d1('enn',0,y,1,'011',' ',rect,[10,3,10,np])
