There are ways of course, but it would be better IMHO to understand what's wrong here. Does it pass strict numerical test? Does it pass five-character test?
I am working on a shell program that needs to accept alpha-numeric input (i.e., P00375); when I use a simple 'read' statement to read in the input (i.e., read LOG), I receive the message "p00375: bad number". How must I adjust my input statement to accept alpha-numerics?
Thanks!
