INVESTIGATION 2: ADDITIONAL LOOPING STATEMENTS
'''Perform the Following Steps:'''
# Use the '''more''' command to view the contents of the text file called '''for-1.bash''' (eg. <span style="color:blue;font-weight:bold;font-family:courier;">more for-1.bash</span>)<br><br>As you should have noticed from ''tutorial 10'' that the '''for''' loop can use a list. <br>You can also use the for loop with positional parameters stored as arguments from an executed shell script. <br>We will revisit this now.<br><br>
# Use the more command to view the text file called '''for-2.bash''' (eg. <span style="color:blue;font-weight:bold;font-family:courier;">more for-2.bash</span>)<br><br>If you are using the nano text editor, refer to notes on text editing in a previous week in the course schedule.<br><br>
# Enter the following lines in your shell script:<br><span style="font-family:courier;">#!/bin/bash<br>clear<br>for x<br>do<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;echo $x<br>done<br>echo "blast-off!"</span><br><br>
