User input and run awk using the input

I am trying to allow a user to enter in text and then store that text in a variable $gene to run in an awk command in which those values are used to run some calculations. I am getting syntax errors however, when I try. Thank you Smilie.

The awk runs great if it is a pre-defined file that is used, but it could also be user input.

Code:
/home/cmccabe/Desktop/loop.sh: line 87: syntax error near unexpected token `for'
/home/cmccabe/Desktop/loop.sh: line 87: `for f in /home/cmccabe/Desktop/NGS/API/2-12-2015/bedtools/*base_counts.txt ; do'

Code:
other() {
printf "\n\n"
printf "Please enter the gene(s) of interest, use a comma between multiple: "; IFS="," read -a gene
        printf "the indicated genes will now be loaded and used to calculate coverage\n"
        [ -z "$gene" ] && printf "\n No ID supplied. Leaving match function." && sleep 2 && return
        [ "$gene" = "end" ] && printf "\n Leaving match function." && sleep 2 && return
        for ((i=0; i<${#gene[@]}; i++))

logfile=/home/cmccabe/Desktop/NGS/API/2-12-2015/process.log
for f in /home/cmccabe/Desktop/NGS/API/2-12-2015/bedtools/*base_counts.txt ; do
     echo "Start custom panel creation: $(date) - File: $f"
     bname=$(basename $f)
     pref=${bname%%.txt}
     awk '
 NR == FNR {input[$0]; next}
 {
    split($5, a, "-")
    if (a[1] in input) {
         key = $4 OFS $5
         n[key]++
         sum[key] += $7
     }
 }
 END {
     for (key in n) 
         printf "%s %.1f\n", key, sum[key]/n[key]
 }
' /home/cmccabe/Desktop/panels/$gene $f | awk '{split($2,a,"-"); print a[1] "\t" $0}' | sort | cut -f2-> /home/cmccabe/Desktop/NGS/API/2-12-2015/bedtools/${pref}_genescoverage.bed
      echo "End custom panel creation: $(date) - File: $f"
done >> "$logfile"
printf "coverage calculated and log created\n"
}

NAME
Bio::Tools::Geneid - Results of one geneid run SYNOPSIS
use Bio::Tools::Geneid; my $gid = Bio::Tools::Geneid(-file => "geneid.out"); while (my $gene = $gid->next_prediction) { my @transcripts = $gene->transcripts; foreach my $t (@transcripts) { my @exons = $t->exons; foreach my $e (@exons) { printf("Exon %d..%d ", $e->start, $e->end); } } } DESCRIPTION
This is the parser for the output of geneid by Enrique Blanco and Roderic Guigo (IMIM-UPF). See http://www1.imim.es/software/geneid. It relies on native geneid output format internally and will work with geneid versions 1.0 and 1.1. Currently this module supports only the default mode of operation which is to predict exons and assemble an optimal gene prediction. It takes either a file handle or a file name and returns a Bio::SeqFeature::Gene::GeneStructure object. FEEDBACK

The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods. Internal methods are usually preceded with a _ new Title : new Usage : $obj->new(-file = "<geneid.out"); $obj->new(-fh => *GI); Function: Constructor for geneid wrapper. Takes either a file : or filehandle Returns : L<Bio::Tools::Geneid> next_prediction Title : next_prediction Usage : while($gene = $geneid->next_prediction) { # do something } Function: Returns the gene structure prediction of the geneid result file. Call this method repeatedly until FALSE is returned. Returns : A Bio::SeqFeature::Gene::GeneStructure object Args : None _add_exon Title : _add_exon Usage : $obj->_add_exon($gene, $transcript, ... exon data ...) Function: Adds a new exon to both gene and transcript from the data : supplied as args Example : Returns : Nothing _set_strand Title : _set_strand Usage : $obj->_set_strand($gene) Function: Sets the overall gene strand to the same strand as all : the exons if they are all on the same strand, or to strand 0 : if the exons are on different strands. Example : Returns : Nothing _target_id Title : _target_id Usage : $obj->_target_id Function: get/set for genomic sequence id Example : Returns : A target ID perl v5.14.2 2012-03-02 Bio::Tools::Geneid(3pm)
