Request: logspace that doesn't require log(a) as argument
See original GitHub issuelinspace(a, b, 10) creates 10 points linearly spaced from a to b.
logspace(a, b, 10) does not create 10 points logarithmically spaced from a to b, as everyone expects it to:

The current behavior can’t be changed because of backwards/matlab compatibility, but it would be nice if there were another function that didn’t require the extra step of logspace(log(a), log(b)....
I don’t know what it should be called, though.

The syntax seems to be taken from Matlab.
I’m terrible at naming, but your function would build a geometric sequence, so maybe something along the lines of
geomspace?Also, getting rid of the
baseparameter seems to make all the sense here.But we should be having this discussion on the mailing list.
@jaimefrio I just found spacepy.toolbox.geomspace. Same name, same syntax. 😃
