_______________________________________________________
Details:
In Section 4.1 Matrices, under "fixed_point_format", the following text
appears:
logspace (1, 7, 5)'
ans =
1.0e+07 *
0.00000
0.00003
0.00100
0.03162
1.00000
Notice that the first value appears to be 0 when it is actually 1. Because of
the possibility for confusion you should be careful about enabling
fixed_point_format.
1. The first value is actually 10, not 1.
2. Suggested addition to the paragraph above:
For further clarification, try the following:
fixed_point_format(1);
output_precision(10);
logspace(1, 7, 5)'
fixed_point_format(0);
output_precision(5);
logspace(1, 7, 5)'
