pass parameter to function
HI all
I have a code like
##############################################
minyear()
{
curryear=$1
echo $curryear
}
##Main Program ##
minyear
exit
#######
when i execute "sh scriptname 2005" output should be like 2005 but the output is blank.
I guess i need to pass parameter to the function. Can you please let me know how to pass parameter from main function and what needs to be done in the function to collect the value
