Question about "for /L"

[BigMan]

How do I generate the sequence 1 7 16 using "for /L"?

 

[David Candy]

You don't.

for %A in (1 7 16) Do echo %A

How do I generate the sequence 1 7 16 using "for /L"?

I don't see how it's possible with /L. However:
FOR %i IN (1 7 16) DO ECHO %i
works.

FOR %i IN (1 7 16) DO ECHO %i
works.

I agree with you and David that "for /L" is not the best tool for the job
compared with the original for command. But it *is* possible to generate the
sequence "1 7 16" using a "for /L" loop:

for /l %X in (1,1,1) do echo/1 7 16
