Issue
I have the following code in an .sh file:
for num in {1..10}
do
echo $num
done
Which should print numbers from 1 to 10. But, this is what I get:
{1..10}
Also, using C-like sytax doesn't work either:
for ((i=1; i<=10; i++))
This gets me an error:
Syntax error: Bad for loop variable
The version of bash that I have is 4.2.25.
Solution
The code should be as follows (note the shebang says bash
, not sh
):
#!/bin/bash
echo "Bash version ${BASH_VERSION}..."
for i in {0..10..1}; do
echo "Welcome $i times"
done
