.. note::
Using ``arange`` with the ``step`` argument can lead to precision errors,
especially with lower-precision data types like ``fp8`` and ``bf16``.
For more details, see the docstring of :func:`numpy.arange`.
To avoid precision errors, consider using an expression like
``(jnp.arange(-600, 600) * .01).astype(jnp.bfloat16)`` to generate a sequence in a higher precision
and then convert it to the desired lower precision.
