[bash] How do I iterate over a range of numbers defined by variables in Bash?

The seq method is the simplest, but Bash has built-in arithmetic evaluation.

END=5
for ((i=1;i<=END;i++)); do
    echo $i
done
# ==> outputs 1 2 3 4 5 on separate lines

The for ((expr1;expr2;expr3)); construct works just like for (expr1;expr2;expr3) in C and similar languages, and like other ((expr)) cases, Bash treats them as arithmetic.
