NAME
       seq - print a sequence of numbers

SYNOPSIS
       seq [OPTION]... LAST
       seq [OPTION]... FIRST LAST
       seq [OPTION]... FIRST INCREMENT LAST

DESCRIPTION
       Print numbers from FIRST to LAST, in steps of INCREMENT.

       -f, --format=FORMAT
	      use printf style floating-point FORMAT (default: %g)

       -s, --separator=STRING
	      use STRING to separate numbers (default: 
)

       -w, --equal-width
	      equalize width by padding with leading zeroes

       --help display this help and exit

       --version
	      output version information and exit

       If FIRST or INCREMENT is omitted, it defaults to 1.  FIRST, INCREMENT, and LAST are interpreted as floating point values.  INCREMENT should
       be positive if FIRST is smaller than LAST, and negative otherwise.  When given, the FORMAT argument must contain exactly one of the printf-
       style, floating point output formats %e, %f, %g
