Return Evenly Spaced Numbers Over a Log Scale in NumPy

To return evenly spaced numbers on a log scale, use the numpy.logspace() method in Python Numpy. The 1st parameter is the "start" i.e. the start of the sequence. The 2nd parameter is the "end" i.e. the end of the sequence.

In linear space, the sequence starts at base ** start (base to the power of start) and ends with base ** stop (see endpoint below). The start is the base ** start is the starting value of the sequence. The stop is the base ** stop is the final value of the sequence, unless endpoint is False. In that case, num + 1 values are spaced over the interval in log-space, of which all but the last are returned. The base of the log space. The step size between the elements in ln(samples) / ln(base) (or log_base(samples)) is uniform. Default is 10.0.

The axis in the result to store the samples. Relevant only if start or stop are array-like. By default (0), the samples will be along a new axis inserted at the beginning. Use -1 to get an axis at the end.

Steps

At first, import the required library −

import numpy as np

Return evenly spaced numbers on a log scale using the numpy.logspace() method in Python Numpy. The 3rd parameter is the num is the number of samples to generate. Default is 50 −

arr = np.logspace(35.0, 70.0)
print("Array...
", arr)

Get the type −

print("
Type...
", arr.dtype)

Get the dimensions −

print("
Dimensions...
",arr.ndim)

Get the shape −

print("
Shape...
",arr.shape)

Get the number of elements −

print("
Number of elements...
",arr.size)

Example

# The 1st parameter is the "start" i.e. the start of the sequence
# The 2nd parameter is the "end" i.e. the end of the sequence
# The 3rd parameter is the num i.s the number of samples to generate. Default is 50.
arr = np.logspace(35.0, 70.0)
print("Array...
", arr)

# Get the type
print("

", arr.dtype)

# Get the dimensions
print("

",arr.ndim)

# Get the shape
print("

",arr.shape)

# Get the number of elements
print("
