Terminal Commands: For loop with echo
I've never used commands in terminal like this before but I know its possible. How would I for instance write:
for (int i = 0; i <=1000; i++) {
echo "http://example.com/%i.jpg",i
}
Solution 1:
The default shell on OS X is bash. You could write this:
for i in {1..100}; do echo http://www.example.com/${i}.jpg; done
Here is a link to the reference manual of bash concerning loop constructs.
Solution 2:
for ((i=0; i<=1000; i++)); do
echo "http://example.com/$i.jpg"
done
Solution 3:
Is you are in bash shell:
for i in {1..1000}
do
echo "Welcome $i times"
done
Solution 4:
jot would work too (in bash shell)
for i in `jot 1000 1`; do echo "http://example.com/$i.jpg"; done
Solution 5:
By using jot:
jot -w "http://example.com/%d.jpg" 1000 1
