In R, seq(0, 1, 0.1) gives the same result as (0:10)*0.1. It is not the same as c(0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1) , as 0.1 is not represented exactly. I am fine with it.
In R, seq(0, 1, length=11) gives the same result as seq(0, 1, 0.1). However, for seq(0, 1, length=11), it is more accurate to return c(0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1) . It can be obtained by (0:10)/10. When 'from', 'to', and 'length.out' are specified and length.out > 2, I propose for function 'seq.default' in R to use something like from + ((0:(length.out - 1))/(length.out - 1)) * (to - from) instead of something like from + (0:(length.out - 1)) * ((to - from)/(length.out - 1)) . ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
