'jot' is pretty sweet, especially for creating ranges for iteration and random numerical data for testing arguments and such.

Check out the man page for a few snippets: http://www.unix.com/man-page/FreeBSD/1/jot/

It is the older, more flexible uncle of gnu's 'seq' command: http://administratosphere.wordpress.com/2009/01/23/using-bsd...

And you can't mention jot and rs without lam: http://www.unix.com/man-page/FreeBSD/1/lam/
