declaring array and move to next line in shell script
Hi,
In shell script, I have a value and i like to move that value to a particular position in a file.
For example, if i have 20000909 then i like to move that to the 15 to 23
position in a file.
Is it possible to have array kind of thing in the shell ?
a[10] is array then
a[0-3] = 123
a[4-7] = 01239
a[8-10] = 128
how to perform this ?
Also how to move to next line ?
