seq? come on.

2009/1/9, 12:53 pm

seq is a handy tool if you want a list of numbers:


$ seq 1 4
1
2
3
4

But then they had to go and try to be fancy:


$ seq 1000000 1000010
1e+06
1e+06
1e+06
1e+06
1e+06
1e+06
1.00001e+06
1.00001e+06
1.00001e+06
1.00001e+06
1.00001e+06

What the fuck. (The “fix” is to use seq -f %.f)
