Hi

seq 211 219

echo {211..219}

function iterate { for ((i=${1%-*};i<=${1#*-};i++)); do echo "$i"; done; }

iterate 211-219

function iterate { i="${1%-*}"; m="${1#*-}"; while ((i<=m)); do echo $((i++)); done; }

iterate 211-219

thx, but in ksh I gen an error...

$ ksh
$ function iterate { i="${1%-*}"; m="${1#*-}"; while ((i<=m)); do echo $((i++)); done; }
$ iterate 211-219
iterate: i++: 0403-053 Expression is not complete; more tokens expected.

Hi

Hmm... Interesting. Try to change the

[tt]echo $((i++))[/tt]

with

[tt]echo $((i+=1))[/tt]

[tt]echo $((i=i+1))[/tt]

[tt]echo $i; let i=i+1[/tt]

One of them should work.

ok, now it works.

thx.

$ function iterate { i="${1%-*}"; m="${1#*-}";i=$((i-1)); while ((i<m)); do echo $((i+=1)); done; }

A star due for Feherke then eh?

Some days are diamonds, some days are rocks - make sure most are the former.

 

[ogniemi]

sure.
