That is, an omitted INCREMENT defaults to 1 even when LAST is smaller than FIRST. The sequence of numbers ends when the sum of the current number and INCREMENT would become greater than LAST. FIRST, INCREMENT, and LAST are interpreted as floating point values. INCREMENT is usually positive if FIRST is smaller than LAST, and INCREMENT is usually negative if FIRST is greater than LAST. INCREMENT must not be 0; none of FIRST, INCREMENT and LAST may be NaN. 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 numbers with maximum precision PREC, and to %g otherwise. .PP GNU coreutils online help: Report any translation bugs to Full documentation or available locally via: info '(coreutils) seq invocation' .SH AUTHOR Written by Ulrich Drepper. .SH COPYRIGHT Copyright \(co 2022 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
