Howdy All! I have a small script called maths.sh with the following code in it:
#/usr/bin/bash count=0 echo $count count=$(( $count + 1 )) echo $count count=$(( $count + 1 )) echo $count count=$(( $count + 1 )) echo $count count=$(( $count + 1 )) echo $count When I run the instructions directly on the command line it works ok but when I run the script, it fails, as you can see from the following screen dump: $ count=0 $ echo $count 0 $ count=$(( $count + 1 )) $ echo $count 1 $ count=$(( $count + 1 )) $ echo $count 2 $ count=$(( $count + 1 )) $ echo $count 3 $ count=$(( $count + 1 )) $ echo $count 4 $ ./math.sh 0 ? 0 + 1 ? ? ? 0 + 1 ? + 1 ? ? ? ? 0 + 1 ? + 1 ? + 1 ? ? ? ? ? 0 + 1 ? + 1 ? + 1 ? + 1 ? $ Can anyone tell me what is going wrong? Any advice would be most appreciated!
