% lseq 1 to 5 ;# increasing → 1 2 3 4 5 % lseq 5 to 1 ;# decreasing → 5 4 3 2 1 % lseq 6 to 1 by 2 ;# decreasing, step wrong sign, empty list % lseq 1 to 5 by 0 ;# all step sizes of 0 produce an empty listThe numeric arguments, start, end, step, and count, may also be a valid expression. The expression will be evaluated and the numeric result will be used. An expression that does not evaluate to a number will produce an invalid argument error.
Start defines the initial value and end defines the limit, not necessarily the last value. lseq produces a list with count elements, and if count is not supplied, it is computed as
count = int( (end - start + step) / step )
The numeric arguments, start, end, step, and count, can also be a valid expression. the lseq command will evaluate the expression (as if with expr) and use the numeric result, or return an error as with any invalid argument value; a non-numeric expression result will result in an error.
