printf "%s:%s:%s:%s:%s:%s\n" `jot -r -w "%02x" 6 0 99`
Input:
jot - 1000 10000 1000
Output:
1000 2000 3000 4000 5000 6000 7000 8000 9000 10000
To generate 1000 unique random numbers, issue:
jot -r 1000 0 65535 | uniq | xargs printf "%05d\n"
where the jot parameters mean:
-r means generate random numbers,1000 for 1000 random numbers,0 the starting numbers,65535 the ending random number
The uniq command eliminates any duplicate random numbers. After that the barges command is used to pass the numbers to printf as parameter. The printf command then takes %05d\n as the formatting parameter meaning to print a 5-digit number all the time (for example, if jot generates the number 1, then printf makes sure to pre-pend zeros to obtain 0001.
