 There's no simple way to make a sequence based on step size that includes
 both endpoints.  For instance, to produce the sequence [1.0, 1.1, 1.2,
 1.3, 1.4, 1.5], you'd have to do something clunky like:

     linspace(1.0, 1.5, (1.5-1.0)/0.1+1)

 or

     arange(1.0, 1.5+0.01, 0.1)

 it would be more convenient if you could just say

     linspace(1.0, 1.5, step=0.1)

 or maybe

     arange(1.0, 1.5, 0.1, endpoint=True)

 Of course, `step` could not be specified at the same time as `num`.
