seq — Prints a sequence of Nos to Stdout.
Summary :
seq prints the numbers from Start to End in steps. By default, Start and Step are 1, and by default each number is separated by a new line. All numbers can be reals, not just integers.
Examples :
$ seq 6 — Print Nos from 1 to 6.
$ seq 2 6 — Print Nos from 2 to 6.
$ seq .1 .5 10 — Real numbers with factional step value 0.1.
$ seq 10 100 10000 — Print Nos from 10 to 10K with step value 100.
$ seq -w 10 100 10000 — All Nos are printed equal width.
$ seq -s’ ‘ 1 2 10 — Each number is separated by SPACE.
$ seq -f %1.f 1000000 1000001 — Print Nos with no exponent and no decimal point.
$ seq -f %e 1 5 — Print Nos with exponent and decimal point.
Note:
- Fractional increment may NOT end with END value.
- More formatting details are available in the info page.
