NAME

       numround - A program that rounds off numbers it encounters.

SYNOPSIS

       numround [-cdfhV] <FILE>

       | numround [-cdfhV]   (Input on STDIN from pipeline.)

       numround [-cdfhV]     (Input on STDIN.  Use Ctrl-D to stop.)

DESCRIPTION

       numround will simply round decimal numbers to the nearest integer or to a factor of any number using the -n option.  You can also force it
       to round up (ceiling) or round down(floor) using the -c and -f options.

OPTIONS

	   -c	   Force the number to be rounded up. Ceiling.
	   -f	   Force the number to be rounded down. Floor.
	   -n <n>  Round numbers to the nearest factor of <n>.

	   -h	   Print out some helpful information about numround.
	   -V	   Increase verbosity.	This will print out numbers as it finds them.
	   -d	   Debug mode.	For developers only.

BUGS

       numround currently only rounds the first number on each line.  Eventually this will be changed as all the numeric utilities are developed.

       numround will drop off the decimal places in decimal numbers.  This may cause some calculations to be in error, depending on how you are
       using the data.

NAME

       numrange - Print out a range of numbers for use in for loops and such.

SYNOPSIS

       numrange [-dhV] /<expression>/

DESCRIPTION

       numrange will print out a list of numbers based on an expression that you specify.  This is useful for making a list of numbers for use in
       for loops and so on.  Ranges are inclusive.  Ranges of numbers are specified using the .. operator, like this /20..50/, which means all
       integers from 20 to 50 inclusive.  More complex expressions can be generated using the commas and the 'i' increment operator.

OPTIONS

	   -e <set> Exclude the <set> of numbers from the range output.  <set>
	      is a set of numbers separated by commas.
	   -n <n> Use <n> as the separator between numbers.  By default, it
	      will use a space.  Use '
' or \n for a newline character or
	      use the -N option.
	   -N  Just a quick option for using a newline as the separator.

	   -h  Help: You're looking at it.
	   -V  Increase verbosity.
	   -d  Debug mode.  For developers

EXAMPLES

	  All numbers from 1 to 10.
	   $ numrange /1..10/
	   1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

	  From 10 to 1. Counting down.
	   $ numrange /10..1/
	   10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1

	  From 1 to 10 and from 15 to 20.
	   $ numrange /1..10,15..20/
	   1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 15 16 17 18 19 20

	  Even numbers from 0 to 10
	   $ numrange /0..10i2/
	   0 2 4 6 8 10

	  Odd numbers.	Notice the starting number in the range expression.
	   $ numrange /1..10i2/
	   1 3 5 7 9

	  Factors of 3 between 99 and 120.
	   $ numrange /99..120i3/
	   99 102 105 108 111 114 117 120

	  Decimal numbers
	   $ numrange /1.1..2.5i0.1/
	   1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 1.5 1.6 1.7 1.8 1.9 2 2.1 2.2 2.3 2.4 2.5

	  And negative numbers too.
	   $ numrange /1.0..-2.0i0.3/
	   1 0.7 0.4 0.1 -0.2 -0.5 -0.8 -1.1 -1.4 -1.7 -2

	  You can also pad numbers when you are counting up.  This is
	  a trick of how the Perl programming language deals with ranges:

	   $ numrange /01..15/
	   01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 15

BUGS

       Even though you can do zero padding on simple ranges, like 001..100, it will not pad zeros on complex ranges like 001..100i2, or for
       counting downwards.
