How to select only either odd or even ports in a cisco switch

E.g odd ports

int ran gi1/0/1,3,5,7,....

Is there an easier way of doing it other than typing in all the port numbers one by one?

What OS is the switch? IOS or NX-OS?
I've moved away from networking more towards *Nix, but I know NX-OS has python installed and allows for some basic REGEX and scripting. The method might also depend on what you're ultimately trying to accomplish.

If you need it only once I don't know a way, if you need it multiple times you can define a "macro", for example:
define interface-range ODD_INTERFACES fastEthernet 0/1 , fastEthernet 0/3 , fastEthernet 0/5 .......
and then use it:
interface range macro ODD_INTERFACES

Good tip Alceo, thanks!

So you guys are saying that either way I have to type it in manually?

Yeah but once you have the macro it will be quicker in the future.
