First Shell Script

#!/bin/sh
if [ $1 -lt 0 ]
then echo "$1 is a negative number"
elif [ $1 -eq 0 ]
  then echo "$1 is number zero"
  else echo "$1 is a positive number"
fi

Please use the [code] tags. Thank you.

Okay, mage...


#!/bin/sh
if [ $1 -lt 0 ]
then echo "$1 is a negative number"
elif [ $1 -eq 0 ]
  then echo "$1 is number zero"
  else echo "$1 is a positive number"
fi

Now writing to test for no arguments.

You might enjoy the Haskell programming language and the [o]point[o]less style.

Make a script that actually does something next time, please.

$ fag()
if [ $1 -lt 0 ]
then echo "$1 is a negative number"
elif [ $1 -eq 0 ]
  then echo "$1 is number zero"
  else echo "$1 is a positive number"
fi
$ fag a
-bash: [: a: integer expression expected
-bash: [: a: integer expression expected
a is a positive number

fuck you shiicham

fUCK YOU TOO!


#!/bin/sh
if [ $# -eq 0 ]
then echo "signum: no number supplied" 1>&2
exit 2
fi

if [ $1 -lt 0 ]
then echo "$1 is a negative number"
elif [ $1 -eq 0 ]
  then echo "$1 is the number zero"
  else echo "$1 is a positive number"
fi
exit 0


(FORMAT T "iF YOU CAN'T TELL WHETHER ~A IS NEGATIVE OR NOT, YOU'RE A FUCKING RETARD.~%" (SIGNUM (READ)))

how do I parse multiple arguments?
With a for-do-done cycle and $@?

SIGNUM WORKS WITH COMPLEX NUMBERS. cLEARLY, C CAN EITHER BE NEGATIVE OR SOMETHING ELSE, AND SPECIFICALLY IF IT'S A COMPLEX NUMBER IT FALLS IN THE LATTER CASE, AND AGAIN, IF YOU CAN'T TELL #C(0.4472 -0.8944) IS A COMPLEX NUMBER JUST BY LOOKING AT IT YOU'RE TARDER THAN THE TARDEST TARD IN TARDVILLE, AND THAT ALONE IS SUFFICIENT TO CHANGE THE SUBJECT OF THIS THREAD FROM 'SHELL SCRIPTING' TO 'MOCK >>13'.
