Full Discussion: Max amount of parameter
Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Max amount of parameter Post 303007626 by MadeInGermany on Sunday 19th of November 2017 02:54:17 AM

Why do you want to translate position numbers to values?
Normally you simply walk through the given values
Code:
echo "here are the $# values:"
for arg
do
  echo "$arg"
done

for arg is short for for arg in "$@".
If you want to associate positions with the values then you can store the values in an array, as Don showed.

Hi, I am relatively new to Unix and trying to understand as much as I can. I would like to know if it's possible to count the total number of Unix accounts? If so, can the count be done from any working directory or does it have to be specific to where the accounts are based? Thanks! (4 Replies)
