Input parameters
I have a script which take 3 input parameters
1st - a date (i.e. current date)
2nd - type (i.e. A)
3rd - limit (i.e. 40)
normally the date parameter would be current date, so I thought I could do this
calculate.sh $(date +%Y-%m-%d) A 40
however, it seems like it can't be done, instead of 2007-01-05, the command just return $date. I need to pass current date (and 2 other parameters) to a script, how can it be done? Thanks in advance!
