`r.step` is not defined to be anything meaningful to the user. It is a data field and all data fields are considered to be private details in Julia. You can access them if you want, but they typically aren't part of the API and may change at the whim of the implementer. You are probably looking for `step(r)` which does return 0.3 in both cases.
The range from 0.6 to 1.4 in steps of 0.3 ends at 1.2, so that's what you get when you query for the last value `last(r)` On Thu, Mar 6, 2014 at 10:56 PM, Stephen Voinea <scvoi...@gmail.com> wrote: > I noticed the following strangeness: > > julia> r = 0.6:0.3:1.2 > 0.6:0.3:1.2 > > julia> r.step > 3.0 > > julia> r.start > 6.0 > > julia> r = 0.6:0.3:1.4 > 0.6:0.3:1.2 > > julia> r.start > 0.6 > > julia> r.step > 0.3 > > Am I missing something? > > julia> versioninfo() > Julia Version 0.3.0-prerelease+1829 > Commit 037a469* (2014-03-04 12:46 UTC) > Platform Info: > System: Darwin (x86_64-apple-darwin13.1.0) > CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3720QM CPU @ 2.60GHz > WORD_SIZE: 64 > BLAS: libopenblas (USE64BITINT DYNAMIC_ARCH NO_AFFINITY) > LAPACK: libopenblas > LIBM: libopenlibm > > Thanks. >
