Ratio of pilots employed to aircraft

What would be a typical ratio of line pilots employed by an airline for a particular model of aircraft, to number of aircraft in service? Or to put it another way, how many flight crews does a single airliner typically need?

Does short haul versus long haul (longer turnarounds, but need to consider crew sleep cycles) make a difference?
