Question Array in Ksh

Hi Guys,
My code is something like this

Code:
set -A A1 1 7 13 19 
set -A A2 2 8 14 20
set -A A3 3 9 15 21

echo "Enter a number"
read number
for i in 0 2 3 4 
do
 if [ "$number" = "${A1[$i]}" ]
 then
 do something
elif [ "$number" = "${A2[$i]}" ]
 then
 do something
elif [ "$number" = "${A3[$i]}" ]
 then
 do something
fi
done

Actually I have even more array and if - else conditions
my question: is there any other way to do the same thing with out too many conditions.

Ksh array solution.

I was wondering if ksh supported arrays. I have a script that may work with several hosts. I'd like a means of knowing how many hosts I'm working with and an easy way to access them (as variables) in a loop. I'm assuming there's some kind of foreach in shell scripting. (1 Reply)

This function queries the repository URL and returns a list of files and directories, optionally from a specific revision. This is equiva- lent to svn list $repos_url[@$revision_no] Note This function does not work with working copies. $repos_url must be a repository URL. PARAMETERS
o $url - URL of the repository, eg. http://www.example.com/svnroot. To access a local Subversion repository via filesystem, use the file URI scheme, eg. file:///home/user/svn-repos o $revision - Integer revision number to retrieve listing of. When omitted, the HEAD revision is used. o $recurse - Enables recursion. RETURN VALUES
On success, this function returns an array file listing in the format of: [0] => Array ( [created_rev] => integer revision number of last edit [last_author] => string author name of last edit [size] => integer byte file size of file [time] => string date of last edit in form 'M d H:i' or 'M d Y', depending on how old the file is [time_t] => integer unix timestamp of last edit [name] => name of file/directory [type] => type, can be 'file' or 'dir' ) [1] => ...
