ee.List.sequence

  • Generates a sequence of numbers between a start and end point with optional step or count parameters.

  • Either an end point or a count of increments must be specified.

  • The function takesstart,end,step, andcount as arguments, returning a List.

  • Thestep argument is ignored ifcount is also provided.

 Generate a sequence of numbers from start to end (inclusive) in increments of step, or in count equally-spaced increments. If end is not specified it is computed from start + step * count, so at least one of end or count must be specified.

UsageReturns
ee.List.sequence(start,end,step,count)List
ArgumentTypeDetails
startNumberThe starting number.
endNumber, default: nullThe ending number.
stepNumber, default: 1The increment.
countInteger, default: nullThe number of increments.
