Usage
This is a method that is invoked in one of two forms, either
the two argument version
c = colon(a,b)
which is also called using the notation
c = a:b
and the three argument version
d = colon(a,b,c)
which is also called using the notation
d = a:b:c
COLON COLON Index Generation Operator
Usage
There are two distinct syntaxes for the colon : operator - the two argument form
y = a : c
and the three argument form
y = a : b : c
The two argument form is exactly equivalent to a:1:c. The output y is the vector
where a+nb <= c. There is a third form of the colon operator, the
no-argument form used in indexing (see indexing for more details).
