your code didn't work for me, but mine did.

I don't understand your perl code Smilie

I created a sample file:
Quote:
z1
z2
z3
...
z10000
but your code didn't work, mine did. Remember that I need this output:
Quote:
z1
z101
z201
z301
...
z9801
z9901
z2
z102
z202
z302
...
z9902
z3
z103
z203
z303
...
z9903
z4
z104
...

Instead of invoking awk 99 times this should be a better approach :
Code:
awk '{ print; z=substr($0,1,1); n=substr($0,2)
  for(i=10;i<1000;i+=10){
    printf("%s%d%s\n", z, i, n)
  }
}' input > output
