[SOLVED] BASH Script help

[lockon]

I am pretty new to BASH scripting, I have a script that will build a list of hosts and it works fine

for ((i=$START; i<=$END; i++)); do echo "$NAME$i"; done

But I need it to build the START and END on different number formats (i.e. 1 -> 10, 01->10, 001 ->010)

I am trying to use the seq command but can't get it to work quite right with the -w flag in the following

for ((myseq=$START; myseq<=$END; myseq ++))
do
echo "$NAME${myseq}"
done

I am fully aware that this syntax is probably wrong, and need to know how to correct it.

If you need more info I can provide it.
Thanks

Got it

echo What is the host name minus the numbering?
read NAME
echo What are the starting and ending numbers for the $NAME hosts?
read START END
echo " "
echo $NAME$START
echo "Through"
echo $NAME$END
echo " "

for a in `seq -w $START $END`
do
echo $NAME$a
done
