reading from file

anchal_khare · #1 (**permalink**) 09-01-2008

frnds,,,
I have a file with thousands of numbers in it ( 1 per line )

like... first some lines of the lines 'd be
3123123344
3123213144
4234234555
4353453453
....
....

I need 3 parameters while executing the script.
1st is a number ( constant ) and 2nd is the date and the 3rd one is the filename of the above file from which i have to read these numbers one by one.

pl suggest me the some best possible ways to achieve this senario.

Thanks.

Try this

Code:

param_one=your_constant
param_two=date

while read param_three
do
  do_calculations_using $param_one $param_two $param_three
done < $your_file_name_here
