NAME

seq — print a sequence of numbers

SYNOPSIS

seq [-w] [-s separator] [-t terminator] [first [step]] last

Prints out a list of floating numbers between first (defaults to 1) and last in increments of step (defaults to 1).

-w: Use the longest width between either the first or the last number of the sequence. Should match the longest number in the sequence reasonably well.
-s separator: Set the string used between each number (default: "\n" aka newline)
-t terminator: Set the final string used at the end of the sequence (default: "\n" aka newline)

The seq utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

A seq utility first appeared in Plan9 and GNU sh-utils 1.12q (since merged in coreutils).
