Im trying to understand how to do something I'm working on at work
I'm trying to read a users name from input store it in name, then enter a while loop as long as name is not equal to x, then if name is equal to name do nothing, but if name is != name do something, exit if statement, check name variable if not x continue looping, if x end program. Does that make sense?
---------- Post updated at 09:50 PM ---------- Previous update was at 09:35 PM ----------
so now code is
Code:
#!/bin/ksh
x="x"
echo "Enter a name: "
read NAME
while [ "$NAME" != "$x" ]
do
echo $NAME
echo
if [ $NAME == $NAME ]
then
echo ":"
else
echo $NAME
fi
echo
echo "Enter a Name: "
read NAME
done
When I view the output it keeps asking for a name, and is ignoring the x if name is x, and looks like it is infinite looping. Why?

NOTES
Note
In PHP versions before 5.0.0 you must use ocicolumnsize(3) instead. This name still can be used, it was left as alias of
oci_field_size(3) for downwards compatability. This, however, is deprecated and not recommended.
SEE ALSO oci_num_fields(3), oci_field_name(3).
