foreach - Linux Command - Unix Command

take a look the 2nd example. I think it should be what you want.

Is the second example:

Quote:
foreach f (${a}) b (${b})
echo "var1 = " $f
echo "var2 = " $b
end
If so, the output is still:

Code:
ObsID =  914
Bin size =  2000 100 500
ObsID =  3188
Bin size =  2000 100 500
ObsID =  3189
Bin size =  2000 100 500
ObsID =  )
Bin size =  2000 100 500
ObsID =  b
Bin size =  2000 100 500
ObsID =  (
Bin size =  2000 100 500
ObsID =  2000
Bin size =  2000 100 500
ObsID =  100
Bin size =  2000 100 500
ObsID =  500
Bin size =  2000 100 500

Maybe I will need to use a while loop?

Hi,

Thanks for your replies. I've managed to solve the problem by doing the following:

Code:
while ($i<4)

foreach f ($obs_id[$i])
foreach b ($bin[$i])

echo "ObsID = " $f
echo "Bin size " = $b

@ i = $i + 1

end
end 
end
