Takes arguments in two forms. The simple / shortcut form is: [start-]end[/stride][:format] As indicated by the brackets: start, stride, and format string are all optional. The format string is in the style of printf. This can be used to pad with zeros, format in hexadecimal, etc. All of the numerical values can be specified in octal (i.e. 0664) or hexadecimal (i.e. 0x3f8). Negative numbers are not supported. Some examples: 5 -> ["1","2","3","4","5"] 5-8 -> ["5", "6", "7", "8"] 2-10/2 -> ["2", "4", "6", "8", "10"] 4:host%02d -> ["host01","host02","host03","host04"] The standard Ansible key-value form is accepted as well. For example: start=5 end=11 stride=2 format=0x%02x -> ["0x05","0x07","0x09","0x0a"] This format takes an alternate form of "end" called "count", which counts some number from the starting value. For example: count=5 -> ["1", "2", "3", "4", "5"] start=0x0f00 count=4 format=%04x -> ["0f00", "0f01", "0f02", "0f03"] start=0 count=5 stride=2 -> ["0", "2", "4", "6", "8"] start=1 count=5 stride=2 -> ["1", "3", "5", "7", "9"] The count option is mostly useful for avoiding off-by-one errors and errors calculating the number of entries in a sequence when a stride is specified.
