It's named and used in the model of [GNU's seq].
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
3 → 1, 2, 3
|
||||
1 2 4 → 1, 3
|
||||
-3 → -1, -2, -3
|
||||
1 4 → 1, 2, 3, 4
|
||||
1 -2 → 1, 0, -1, -2
|
||||
```go-html-template
|
||||
{{ seq 2 }} → [1 2]
|
||||
{{ seq 0 2 }} → [0 1 2]
|
||||
{{ seq -2 2 }} → [-2 -1 0 1 2]
|
||||
{{ seq -2 2 2 }} → [-2 0 2]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Example: `seq` with `range` and `after`
|
||||
|
||||
You can use `seq` in combination with `range` and `after`. The following will return 19 elements:
|
||||
Iterate over a sequence of integers:
|
||||
|
||||
```go-html-template
|
||||
{{ range after 1 (seq 20) }}
|
||||
{{ $product := 1 }}
|
||||
{{ range seq 4 }}
|
||||
{{ $product = mul $product . }}
|
||||
{{ end }}
|
||||
{{ $product }} → 24
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
However, when ranging with an index, the following may be less confusing in that `$indexStartingAt1` and `$num` will return `1,2,3 ... 20`:
|
||||
|
||||
```go-html-template
|
||||
{{ range $index, $num := seq 20 }}
|
||||
{{ $indexStartingAt1 := add $index 1 }}
|
||||
{{ end }}
|
||||
```
