Hi all,

I have a file test1.txt with the below contents

abc
def
ghj
xyz

I tried printing these values using arrays.

Script tried :

set -A array1 `cat test1.txt`
count=${#array1
[*]}
i=0
while [ $i -lt $count ]
do
  echo "element of array $array1[$i]"
done

Output should be :

element of array abc
element of array def
element of array ghj
element of array xyz 

Now my questions are:confused:

1) Is my logic correct?
2)Can we use arrays this way?
3)If no,how can this be done?

Thanks:b:

You can but just increment you $i variable.

And put your array elements in braces.
