Question Frequency of a range of numbers

Hello,

I have a column where there are values from 1 to 150.

I want to get the frequency of values in the following ranges:
1-5
6-10
11-15
....
....
....
146-150

How can I do this in a for loop?

Thanks,
Guss

Code:

VALUES=()

for ((N=1; N<150; N+=5))
do
        INDEX=$(( (N-1) / 5 ))
        VALUES[${INDEX}]=0
done

while read COL1 COL2 N REST
do
        INDEX=$(( (N-1) / 5 ))
        VALUES[$INDEX]=$((VALUES[$INDEX]+1))
        echo "$INDEX = [ ${VALUES[$INDEX]} ]"

        printf "%3d - %3d: %d\n" $N $((N+4)) ${VALUES[$INDEX]}
done
