K Shell evaluating value to a variable

Shell Programming and Scripting

Hi,
I have the following requirement.

V="First"
R="V"

echo $$R

The output should be First. How do i achieve this.

how do we evaluate the $R and evaluate it to $V as $R contains V
and $V is First.

Thanks
Vijay

try $R=${V}
or $R=$V

$ V="First"
$ R="V"
$ eval echo \$$R
First

If your version of ksh supports nameref

$ V="First"
$ nameref R="V"
$ echo $R
First
