In a new function not named `linspace()`, I think that might be fine. I do occasionally want to swap between linear and logarithmic/geometric spacing based on a parameter, so this doesn't violate the van Rossum Rule of Function Signatures.
Would such a new function correct the apparent mistake (?) of `linspace` including the endpoint by default? Or is the current API justified by its Matlab origins? (Or have I missed the point altogether?) If this query is annoying, please ignore it. It is not meant to be. Alan
