How to set linspace to infinity

8 次查看(过去 30 天)
Good day, everyone!
This is my code for the 3D plot of the equation Z= (X^2+3*Y^2)*exp(-X^2-Y^2). In my code, I set my linspace to (-2,2) as an example. But I was wondering if there is a way to set the linspace for x, y to (0, inf). If I have tried writing that way, no change occurred. (I assume it's an error). Following is my code. x=linspace(-2,2); y=linspace(-2,2); [X,Y] = meshgrid(x,y); Z=(X.^2+3*Y.^2)*exp(-X.^2-Y.^2); meshz(X,Y,Z)
Thank you.

No, this isn't possible because linspace generates a uniformly spaced vector over the two endpoints. Such a vector on (0,Inf) would have an infinite number of entries and would not be practical. (For example, if would take an infinite amount of memory).
A good alternative would be to identify a limit where the behaviour of your function is "close" to the limiting behavior you want to view then using that point instead. Since your function is exponential, something like:
x = linspace(0,10); y = linspace(0,10);
is probably sufficient.

Give logspace a go. It might at least help you describe your function at extreme values.
