Just use Bash's builtin things:

for n in {0001..0010}; do echo ${n}; done

Nice, but this needs an actual version of bash, with that oldie shipped with OSX Yosemite the result is not padded with zeros.

Cool, thanks.

Or seq -f %04g 1 10

Sure seq is OK, but jot does everything seq does and more, so I prefer jot.

# generate 10 random numbers between 1 and 1 million

jot -r 10 1 1000000

I meant to go all "just use coreutils, there is shuf available already, no need for some third-party tool" but then I realised that jot is an integral part of BSD. Rock on! :)

For us Linuxers: shuf -i 1-1000000 -n 10
