Arithmetic Sequence of Numbers
Purpose
This rule allow to generate a sequence of numbers from an arithmetic progression.
Configuration
The initial value, the increment between two consecutive values and the precision of the generated values are configurable.
The initial value and the increment parameters can be any decimal number. The precision should be an integer and will be used to format (truncate) the generated numbers to the number of decimal digits specified.
Notice that if you specify an increment of 0.2 and a precision of 0 (which means generated values will be integer), then the sequence of generated values, starting from 0 will be :
0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 ...
Because it is the rounded values of the actual values in the generator engine
0 0.2 0.4 0.5 0.6 0.8 1 1.2 1.4 1.6 ...
