                          Let's suppose I have the following loop:

    for i in {1..3}
    do
    
    mkdir $i
    
    done

Since I have many other loops in the main code and I am going to change regularly the size of the sequence, I would like to define the start and end of the loop and use these variables in the for loop(s).

I tried this without success:

    start=1;
    end=1;

    for i in {$start..$end}
    do
    
    mkdir $i
    
    done

Any suggestion?
