from matplotlib.mlab import linspace

But linspace may not be what you want.  Probably better:

In [1]: Fs = 4.  # sampling at 4Hz

In [2]: dt = 1./Fs

In [3]: import numpy

In [4]: ind = numpy.arange(1000.)  # the sample number

In [5]: t = ind*dt   # the sample times

In [6]: t[0]
Out[6]: 0.0

In [7]: t[1]
Out[7]: 0.25


linspace gives a slightly different answer, because it includes the
endpoint.  Sometimes this is what you want, sometimes not.
