NAME
       seq - print a sequence of numbers

SYNOPSIS
       seq [OPTION]... LAST
       seq [OPTION]... FIRST LAST
       seq [OPTION]... FIRST INCREMENT LAST

DESCRIPTION
       Print numbers from FIRST to LAST, in steps of INCREMENT.

       Mandatory  arguments  to	 long  options are mandatory for short options
       too.

       -f, --format=FORMAT
	      use printf style floating-point FORMAT

       -s, --separator=STRING
	      use STRING to separate numbers (default: \n)

       -w, --equal-width
	      equalize width by padding with leading zeroes

       --help display this help and exit

       --version
	      output version information and exit

       If FIRST or INCREMENT is omitted, it defaults to 1.  That is, an	 omit‐
       ted  INCREMENT  defaults	 to  1	even  when LAST is smaller than FIRST.
       FIRST, INCREMENT, and LAST are interpreted as  floating	point  values.
       INCREMENT is usually positive if FIRST is smaller than LAST, and INCRE‐
       MENT is usually negative if FIRST is greater than LAST.	FORMAT must be
       suitable	 for  printing	one  argument of type 'double'; it defaults to
       %.PRECf if FIRST, INCREMENT, and LAST are all fixed point decimal  num‐
       bers with maximum precision PREC, and to %g otherwise.
