nicetix

for scalebars and graphs

Usage

The nicetix function returns an array of evenly spaced, "nice" numbers based on a given minimum, maximum, and an upper limit on the number of values you want.

Note

The number of values returned may not exactly match the requested number. In some cases, it may be only half of the specified amount, but it will never exceed the requested limit.

$ npm install nicetix

import nicetix from "nicetix";
// nicetix(min, max, <num = 5>)

let ticks = nicetix(-1.23, 12.3, 7);
//-> [-2.5, 0, 2.5, 5, 7.5, 10, 12.5]

(The scalebar in this example was created with dv-scalebar, a versatile framework-agnostic scalebar component)
