Terminal Commands: For loop with echo

Asked 2011-08-23T18:25:26.193

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
}

macos terminal command

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

jot would work too (in bash shell)

for i in `jot 1000 1`; do echo "http://example.com/$i.jpg"; done
