Hi.

Similarly to c:
Code:
#!/usr/bin/env bash

# @(#) s1	Demonstrate c-like for-loop in bash.

pe() { for _i;do printf "%s" "$_i";done; printf "\n"; }
pl() { pe;pe "-----" ;pe "$*"; }
db() { ( printf " db, ";for _i;do printf "%s" "$_i";done;printf "\n" ) >&2 ; }
db() { : ; }
C=$HOME/bin/context && [ -f $C ] && $C

pe
first=17
last=21
for (( i=first ; i<=last ; i++ ))
do
  printf "%05i\n" $i
done

exit 0

producing:
Code:
% ./s1
