Review Shell syntax
•
•
•
•
•
•
$# - Number of positional parameters
$! - Background PID
$? - Return value
$$ - Process PID
$ - Provides the content of a variable ($NUMBER)
$0, $1, $2, $3 … - The syntax represents the
positional parameters on the command line.
./printnum.sh 4
• exit 0 – The return values is a number from 0 to
255. A value of zero (0) indicates a normal exit.
• exit 1 - Indicates a failure occurred.
Review shell syntax
• “ “ - Double quotes. Removes special meaning of all
enclosed characters, except $, `, “, and \.
• Example: print “The price is $Price.\n”; (interpolation)
• ‘
’ - Literal quotes. Removes the special meaning of all
enclosed characters. A single quote cannot appear within
single quotes because a single quote denotes the end of the
string.
• ` ` - Single Back Slash quotes. Used for command
substitution.
• Example: echo The date is `date` (interpolation)
• LINES=`wc -l $ENTRY | cut -c 1-7`
• LISTING=`ls -l | cut -f 9`
Review shell syntax
• if [ -d "$1" ]
then
action statement
fi
• wc –l - Word count with –l (line option). Print the new line
counts
• ~ - Tilde (~ means /export/home/dandrear)
• for name in *
do
action statements
done
