UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

I know how to do produce this:

Code:

string01
string02
string03

several different ways.

But how do I do produce this (without getting lost in recursion):

Code:

string01morestring100yetmore10
string02morestring101yetmore20
string03morestring102yetmore30
...
string10morestring109yetmore100

I would like to be able to do this without using:

bash
ksh
zsh
perl
jot

I presume there is a way, or several, to do this using only base programs such as sh, printf, seq, etc. or perhaps a single function in the C std libs.

Update: Right after posting, I thought of this:

Code:

for i in $(seq 1 10);
do printf "string$(expr 00 + $i)morestring$(expr 99 + $i)yetmore$(expr 10 + $i "*" 10)\n";
done

It works!

(Note the quotes around the "*" meta-character.)

Alternatively:

Code:

for i in $(seq 1 10)
do 
  printf "string0${i}morestring10$((i-1))yetmore${i}0\n"
done

Excellent! I've learnt something new! Cheers!
