How to qdel range of jobs?

Question

I want to qdel a range of jobs, with consecutive IDs. For example:

qdel 18280 18281 18282 18283 18284 18285

Imagine a longer list of consecutive IDs like this. I obviously don't to have to type them all by hand. Is there a simpler way?

Answer 1

Use the expansion {18280..18285} as the argument of qdel:

qdel {18280..18285}
