Bug sh shell user input and stote it to a array
Dear Friends,

I am doing a sh shell script , But I dont have any idea how to read value from user Keyboard and store them to an array .. Is it possible or not I am not also sure in sh shell script ?
EX:-
#! /bin/sh

read DATA
echo "DATA[1] -" $DATA[1]
echo "DATA[3] -" $DATA[2]
echo "DATA[3] -" $DATA[3]

if my input line is - 300 200 100. Then it should display

DATA[1] -300
DATA[2] -200
DATA[3] -100

If it can be store in array then is $# will give me total no of array or anything else ?
or The only way to store is
read DATA[1] DATA[2] DATA[3] in sh script ?

I need a drop of Knowledge from you friends..

Thanks in advance.
