Generating evenly distributed multiples/samples within a range

Question

Specific instance of Problem
I have an int range from 1-100. I want to generate n total numbers within this range that are as evenly distributed

Answer 1

>>> from itertools import count
>>> def steps(start,end,n):
        yield start
        begin = start if start>1 else 0
        c = count(begin,(end-begin)/(n-1))
        next(c)
        for _ in range(n-2):
            yield next(c)
        yield end


>>> list(steps(1,100,2))
[1, 100]
>>> list(steps(1,100,5))
[1, 25, 50, 75, 100]
>>> list(steps(1,100,4))
[1, 33, 66, 100]
>>> list(steps(50,100,3))
[50, 75, 100]
>>> list(steps(10,100,10))
[10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100]

Can be shortened to

>>> from itertools import islice, count
>>> def steps(start,end,n):
        yield start
        begin = start if start>1 else 0
        c = islice(count(begin,(end-begin)/(n-1)),1,None)
        for _ in range(n-2):
            yield next(c)
        yield end
