Shell input
#Brief The shell command and any arguments to that command appear as numbered shell variables: $0
has the string value of the command itself, something like script
, ./script
, /home/user/bin/script
or whatever. Any arguments appear as "$1"
, "$2"
, "$3"
and so on. The count of arguments is in the shell variable "$#"
.
#Command
$ cat myscript
#!/bin/bash
echo "$#"
echo "$0"
echo "First arg: $1"
echo "Second arg: $2"
$ ./myscript hello world
