It's actually (b-a)/nticks/2^n, more or less. But you probably knew that.
Do you really mean "random" points? I wouldn't be very happy if every
time I plotted a function it looked slightly different because different
random points were selected. The default value of nticks could be a bit
too small, and we could make it larger. It used to be 100 or so.
