xgraduate - axis graduation

### Calling Sequence

  `[xi,xa,np1,np2,kMinr,kMaxr,ar]=xgraduate(xmi,xma)`

### Parameters

- `xmi,xma` : real scalars
- `xi, xa, kMinr, kMaxr, ar` :real scalars
- `np1,np2` : integer

### Description

`xgraduate` returns the axis graduations which are used by the plot routines (with pretty print flag enabled). It returns an interval `[xi,xa]` which contains the given interval `[xmi,xma]` and such that

`xi= kMinr*10^ar` , `xa=kMaxr*10^ar` and the interval can be divided into `np2` intervals and each interval is divided in `np1` sub-intervals.

### Examples

      [x1,xa,np1,np2,kMinr,kMaxr,ar]=xgraduate(-0.3,0.2)
