# RANGE_MERGED

A whole-number setting on a log scale gives fewer values than its step implies.

## What happened

This is a warning, and the file still loads. A whole-number setting on a log scale rounds nearby values to the same number, so a sweep tries fewer values than the step suggests.

## What to do

Use a linear scale, or a smaller range, or list the values you want with `values=`.

## Example

```text
strategy.py, line 10: fast: the log scale gives 7 whole numbers, not 9, because nearby values round to the same number. [RANGE_MERGED]
```

The wording of the message depends on your file, and the code does not. A warning does not stop the file from loading.
