.SH DESCRIPTION |
| 15 |
|
.I Cnt |
| 16 |
|
counts from 0 to N-1, producing N lines of output. |
| 18 |
|
.I cnt |
| 19 |
|
produces a nested array of values where the final counter |
| 20 |
|
rotates fastest through its range. |
| 21 |
+ |
The |
| 22 |
+ |
.I \-s |
| 23 |
+ |
option shuffles the output lines, giving a different random |
| 24 |
+ |
order on each invocation. |
| 25 |
|
.I Cnt |
| 26 |
|
is most useful in conjunction with |
| 27 |
|
.I rcalc(1) |
| 30 |
|
To create a 3 by 5 array: |
| 31 |
|
.IP "" .2i |
| 32 |
|
cnt 3 5 |
| 33 |
+ |
.PP |
| 34 |
+ |
To generate a random shuffle of indices 0 through 51: |
| 35 |
+ |
.IP "" .2i |
| 36 |
+ |
cnt -s 52 |
| 37 |
+ |
.PP |
| 38 |
+ |
Similar shuffling broken down by suit: |
| 39 |
+ |
.IP "" .2i |
| 40 |

cnt -s 4 13 |
