Equally spaced numbers with interval

2k Views Asked by At

I've this very silly doubt in getting equally spaced numbers with fixed interval from a set of numbers.

Let's say I have a set of points, if I want maximum N points from this set equally distanced,

for ex:

  • Total number of points in the set: 120
  • Maximum number of points I want from it : 10

Then I can get like this,

1 * (120/ 10), 2 * (120 / 10)...... 10 * (120 / 10) ?

So that I will get 12, 24, 36... ,120 exactly 10 points with perfect interval.

I'm using a formula like, 1 * (X/N), 2 * (X/N), .... N * (X/N)

Is this right approach? Thanks for your time!
