Assigning values to an array via for/while loop
I need to do something like this: Code:
for i in 1 2 3 4 5; do
arr[$i]=$(awk 'NR="$i" { print $2 }' file_with_5_records)
done
That is, parse a file and assign values to an array in an ascending order relative to the number of record in the file that is being processed on each loop. Is my syntax wrong? Is there a trick? I can't seem to get the values assigned properly, does the shell forget them when it exits the loop? Is this even possible? |
