AWK print initial record and double
I have an initial record 0.018

I would like a script that would for i=0;i<200;i++ print
Code:
0.018*1
0.018*2
0.018*3
0.018*4
...
0.018*200

using newline.

Which shell? Try:
Code:
for((i=1;i<=200;i++))
do
 echo '0.018*'$i
done

Korn shell if it's a bash script.

Also, your script doesn't work for me, I get

Code:
*0.018 0
*0.018 1
*0.018 2
*0.018 3
*0.018 4
*0.018 5
*0.018 6
*0.018 7
*0.018 8
*0.018 9
*0.018 10
*0.018 11
*0.018 12
*0.018 13
*0.018 14
*0.018 15
*0.018 16
*0.018 17
*0.018 18

Ok, but now I get


Code:
0.018*1
0.018*2
0.018*3
0.018*4
0.018*5
0.018*6
0.018*7
0.018*8
0.018*9
0.018*10
0.018*11
0.018*12
0.018*13
0.018*14
0.018*15
0.018*16
0.018*17
0.018*18
0.018*19
0.018*20
0.018*21
0.018*22
0.018*23
0.018*24
0.018*25
0.018*26
0.018*27
0.018*28
0.018*29
0.018*30

How could I get the shell to actually evaluate the multiplication,

i.e. desired output

Code:
0.018
0.036
...

pass it through either via expr or bc
# 7  
Old 09-20-2012
#!/bin/bash
Code:
for((i=1;i<=200;i++))
do
 foo=`expr 0.018\*$i`
 echo $foo >> bla
done


Gives

Code:
expr 0.018 \* $i
expr 0.018 \* $i
expr 0.018 \* $i
expr 0.018 \* $i
expr 0.018 \* $i
expr 0.018 \* $i
expr 0.018 \* $i
expr 0.018 \* $i
expr 0.018 \* $i
expr 0.018 \* $i
expr 0.018 \* $i
expr 0.018 \* $i
expr 0.018 \* $i
expr 0.018 \* $i

Ok, this works:

Code:
#!/bin/bash
for((i=1;i<=200;i++))
do
 echo "0.018 * $i" | bc
done

.036
.054
.072
.090
.108
.126
