30 If FIRST or INCREMENT is omitted, it defaults to 1. That is, an omit‐
31 ted INCREMENT defaults to 1 even when LAST is smaller than FIRST.
32 FIRST, INCREMENT, and LAST are interpreted as floating point values.
33 INCREMENT is usually positive if FIRST is smaller than LAST, and INCRE‐
34 MENT is usually negative if FIRST is greater than LAST. FORMAT must be
35 suitable for printing one argument of type `double'; it defaults to
36 %.PRECf if FIRST, INCREMENT, and LAST are all fixed point decimal num‐
37 bers with maximum precision PREC, and to %g otherwise.
