# Program gets an input x from user

while read line ; do



echo $line | read a b c d

if [ "$x" = "$a" ] ; then

( IFS=-
printf ' 1\n 1\n 0\n 0\n'
printf ' %s\n' $b
printf ' 1\n 7\n 0\n'
printf ' %s\n' $c

# if $b (second row in the text file below) is > 1, I want the code
to go to the next line and print the $c and increment a counter
until counter equals $b and then move to the next set of code
below
