Assigning a value to a variable
Hi
I have a script that accepts an input date in YYYY-MM-DD format.
After that, I used sed to delete the hyphen (-) which gives me an output YYYY MM DD.
My question is, how can I assign those three numbers to a three different variable.
Example:
2013-11-23 will become 2013 11 23
I want to assign that three to a variable individually like this;
$X=2013
$Y=11
$Z=23
Thanks.
