Re: [eigen] Vector generators

We have some functions which might be offering what you are looking
for in the development branch:

1) setLinSpaced(const Scalar &low, const Scalar &high, int size), see
here http://tinyurl.com/32lo4fr
2) LinSpaced  (const Scalar &low, const Scalar &high, int size),
http://tinyurl.com/2uqfjhj
3) LinSpaced  (Sequential_t, const Scalar &low, const Scalar &high,
int size), http://tinyurl.com/36zjs6g

The third method is the fastes since it is setting up to 4 values in
one step though there is a slight approximation error involved due to
successive summation.
All methods have in common, that you may (actually, will most likely)
end up with your last element being

high + small error

which is caused by typical rounding errors.

Hauke
