I apologize for the simple question but can someone please help me with how to evaluate a number?
I will be reading in a file and if a number is >= 100000000, I will do something, if not, I will exit the if statement.
Thanks in advance
the syntax is different from shell to shell and language to language.
c syntax would look like:
if (x >= 100000000)
{
cout>>" do something ";
}
bash would look like:
if [ $somevar -ge whatever ]
then
do something
oh yah, in bash you can also do it like:
if (( "$somevar" >= "$somethingelse" ))
then
the rest
