The shell script below (test.cmd) gives me the error 'test.cmd: function: not found' However if I use it like function_name() { code } it works fine. Problem is that i am studying the system code and its using it like function function_name { code }

Can anybody guide me on how to use function function_name { code } in shell scripts.

#ParseRowcount()
function ParseRowcount
{

echo "entered ParseRowcount"
VALUES=$1
echo $VALUES
TOTAL=0
for V in $VALUES
do
        TOTAL=`expr $TOTAL + 1 `
        echo "entered loop"
done

}

#ParseLog()
function ParseLog
{

echo "entered ParseLog"
ROWS_LOADED=`grep "successfully" $1 | cut -d"R" -f1`
echo $ROWS_LOADED
ParseRowcount "$ROWS_LOADED"; ROWS_LOADED=$TOTAL
echo "Rows loaded................${ROWS_LOADED}"

}

ParseLog ./test1.txt
