How do I iterate over a range of numbers defined by variables in Bash?
How do I iterate over a range of numbers in Bash when the range is given by a variable?
I know I can do this (called "sequence expression" in the Bash documentation):
for i in {1..5}; do echo $i; done
Which gives:
1
2
3
4
5
Yet, how can I replace either of the range endpoints with a variable? This doesn't work:
END=5
for i in {1..$END}; do echo $i; done
Which prints:
{1..5}
