How to program with Bash

https://opensource.com/article/19/10/programming-bash-logical-operators-shell-expansions

For Loop

#!/bin/bash

for <variable> in <list>
do
   <command>
done
#For loop example for Creating Files with name alpha beta gamma

#!/bin/bash

for FILE in alpha beta gamma 
do
   echo "Creating file $FILE in system"

   sudo touch $FILE

done

While Loop

#!/bin/bash
while [ <condition> ]
do
   <command>
done
#!/bin/bash
#Here variable "a" is speed

a=0
echo "Starting the Engine"

while [ $a -le 100 ]
do
    sleep 1
    echo "Current Speed $a"

    a=$(($a+10))

done

Functions

Certainly! Here's an example of how you can create a Bash script with a main function to call the check_empty_string function:

#!/bin/bash

check_empty_string() {
    if [ -z "$1" ]; then
        echo "Error: Input string is empty!"
    else
        echo "Input string is not empty."
    fi
}

main() {
    input="example"
    check_empty_string "$input"
}

# Call the main function
main

In this script, the main function is defined to call the check_empty_string function with the input variable. You can replace "example" with any input string you want to test. When you run the script, it will execute the main function, which in turn calls the check_empty_string function.

Sure, here are a few basic reusable Bash functions along with their use cases and examples:

Use Case: A function to greet a person.

greet() {
    echo "Hello, $1!"
}

# Example usage
greet "Alice"
greet "Bob"

Use Case: A function to check if a number is even.

is_even() {
    if (( $1 % 2 == 0 )); then
        echo "Even"
    else
        echo "Odd"
    fi
}

# Example usage
is_even 4  # Output: Even
is_even 7  # Output: Odd

Use Case: A function to display information about a file.

file_info() {
    echo "File: $1"
    echo "Size: $(du -h "$1" | cut -f1)"
    echo "Owner: $(stat -c %U "$1")"
}

# Example usage
file_info "/path/to/somefile.txt"

Use Case: A function to calculate the sum of two numbers.

sum() {
    echo "$(($1 + $2))"
}

# Example usage
result=$(sum 5 3)
echo "Sum: $result"  # Output: Sum: 8

Use Case: A function to reverse a string.

reverse() {
    echo "$1" | rev
}

# Example usage
reversed=$(reverse "hello")
echo "Reversed: $reversed"  # Output: Reversed: olleh
