It'd be useful to have a function to split a scale into breaks of equal size from the limits.

I thought maybe it might like it scales::breaks_equal(n = NULL, ....)

Below is the output that it would generate in breaks as a demo for different n's for a example limits of c(0, 10), but rounded sensibly.

x1 <- 0
x2 <- 10

n <- 2
seq(from = x1, to = x2, by = (x2 - x1) / (n - 1))
#> [1]  0 10
n <- 3
seq(from = x1, to = x2, by = (x2 - x1) / (n - 1))
#> [1]  0  5 10
n <- 4
seq(from = x1, to = x2, by = (x2 - x1) / (n - 1))
#> [1]  0.000000  3.333333  6.666667 10.000000
n <- 5
seq(from = x1, to = x2, by = (x2 - x1) / (n - 1))
#> [1]  0.0  2.5  5.0  7.5 10.0
n <- 6
seq(from = x1, to = x2, by = (x2 - x1) / (n - 1))
#> [1]  0  2  4  6  8 10
