Package: coreutils
Version: 5.97-5.3
Severity: normal
I saw that "seq 1 9" gives 9 lines:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
while "seq 1.1 9.1 gives only 8 lines:
1.1
2.1
3.1
4.1
5.1
6.1
7.1
8.1
That's confusing. I expect seq behaves the same way in the two cases.

Since this is behaving as documented and I have heard no dissenting
opinions I am closing this bug.
