ised is a command-line tool for generating number sequences and
|
|
arithmetic evaluation. Unlike big gui-based software (e.g. Mathematica,
|
|
Derive, Matlab, Octave,...) it is intended for use in shell scripting,
|
|
together with gnu core utilities.
|
|
|
|
Its main advantage is that all functions are generalized to operate
|
|
on one-dimensional arrays. It can be used for loop indexing (much
|
|
like seq), line-by-line arithmetic processing of files, floating
|
|
point math for shells that don't support it natively, or interactively,
|
|
as extended calculator.
