I realise you've answered your question, but a simpler solution would be to put the prefix and suffix in the printf command.
printf 'PREFIX %s SUFFIXn' 001..500 > output
(I'm not sure if the input part should be there. It's absent in your answer.)

How come the sed command changed to look more simple? How is that possible? Is that like printf's equivalent?

Thesedcommand replaces the beginning^and end$of each line.printfdefines how it will "print" the numbers, i.e. each line consist ofPREFIXfollowed by a string%s, then ` SUFFIX` and a newlinen. The numbers expanded from001..500replace the string placeholder%s.

because it doesn't actually need the input, it works fine without.

Regardinginput, if this is present, the command will create another line after the numbers, but with the literal stringinputinstead. (I'm presuming you don't want this.)

The
sed command replaces the beginning ^ and end $ of each line. printf defines how it will "print" the numbers, i.e. each line consist of PREFIX followed by a string %s, then ` SUFFIX` and a newline n. The numbers expanded from 001..500 replace the string placeholder %s.– Sparhawk
