Question

X=linspace(1,5,10), how many elements will the resulting vector x contain?

a. 5
b. 10
c. 15
d. 20

Answer 1

The command 'x=linspace(1, 5, 10)' creates a vector with 10 elements, equally spaced between the numbers 1 and 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The command x=linspace(1, 5, 10) in a programming context, typically MATLAB or similar computing environments, generates a vector that includes 10 equally spaced elements between 1 and 5 (inclusive). Hence, the resulting vector x will contain 10 elements. The syntax for 'linspace' is linspace(start_value, end_value, number_of_elements), where 'start_value' is the first number in the vector, 'end_value' is the last number, and 'number_of_elements' specifies how many points are generated between the start and end values.
