Dear misc@ readers,
I was doing a little exercise with integer arithmetics and noticed the
following:
[....................snip....................]
$ echo $(expr -09 % 3)
0
[....................snip....................]
[....................snip....................]
$ echo $((-09 % 3))
sh: -09 % 3: bad number `09'
[....................snip....................]
bash seems to behave same way; just wondering if this inconsistency is
expected...
