Bug in 'seq'?

Bug in 'seq'? |
Date: |
Fri, 22 Mar 2002 16:55:36 -0500 (EST) |
Version:
sh-utils-2.0.11-5 as shiped by RedHat
Noticed:
"seq" sometimes skips `LAST´ when `INCREMENT´ is not 1.
Expected:
"seq" to consitantly output `LAST´ when is equals
`FIRST´+(N*`INCREMENT´)
Examples:
> seq 0 1
0
1
> seq 0 1 1
0
1
> seq 0 .5 1
0
0.5
1
> seq 0 .1 1
0
0.1
0.2
0.3
0.4
0.5
0.6
0.7
0.8
0.9
>
Note the lack of `1.0´.
Simular effects can be made by:
> seq 0 .2 10
But this seem to be ok:
> seq 0 .5 10
Thank you.
