    Return evenly spaced numbers over a specified interval.

    Returns `num` evenly spaced samples, calculated over the
    interval [`start`, `stop`].

    The endpoint of the interval can optionally be excluded.

    .. versionchanged:: 1.16.0
        Non-scalar `start` and `stop` are now supported.

    Parameters
    ----------
    start : array_like
        The starting value of the sequence.
    stop : array_like
        The end value of the sequence, unless `endpoint` is set to False.
        In that case, the sequence consists of all but the last of ``num + 1``
        evenly spaced samples, so that `stop` is excluded.  Note that the step
        size changes when `endpoint` is False.
    num : int, optional
        Number of samples to generate. Default is 50. Must be non-negative.
    endpoint : bool, optional
        If True, `stop` is the last sample. Otherwise, it is not included.
        Default is True.
    retstep : bool, optional
        If True, return (`samples`, `step`), where `step` is the spacing
        between samples.
    dtype : dtype, optional
        The type of the output array.  If `dtype` is not given, infer the data
        type from the other input arguments.

        .. versionadded:: 1.9.0

    axis : int, optional
        The axis in the result to store the samples.  Relevant only if start
        or stop are array-like.  By default (0), the samples will be along a
        new axis inserted at the beginning. Use -1 to get an axis at the end.

        .. versionadded:: 1.16.0

    Returns
    -------
    samples : ndarray
        There are `num` equally spaced samples in the closed interval
        ``[start, stop]`` or the half-open interval ``[start, stop)``
        (depending on whether `endpoint` is True or False).
    step : float, optional
        Only returned if `retstep` is True

        Size of spacing between samples.

    --------
    arange : Similar to `linspace`, but uses a step size (instead of the
             number of samples).
    geomspace : Similar to `linspace`, but with numbers spaced evenly on a log
                scale (a geometric progression).
    logspace : Similar to `geomspace`, but with the end points specified as
               logarithms.

    Since this function grabs the ``char *`` from a c-level str object and puts
    it into the ``tp_doc`` slot of the type of `obj`, it violates a number of
    C-API best-practices, by:

    - modifying a `PyTypeObject` after calling `PyType_Ready`
    - calling `Py_INCREF` on the str and losing the reference, so the str
      will never be released

    If possible it should be avoided.
