Hello
I am new in linux scripting. I have problems with this script:
Why "wa" is not equal to "user" when I am login in my terminal like user?
How to get wa equal to "user"?
Thanks
Please put code inside
```text
...
```
tags.
if [ "$wa" = user ]; then
user should be in quotes.
if [ "$wa" = "user" ]
Nothing happens.
#!/bin/bash
wa=$(whoami)
if ["$wa"= user]; then
echo "I am: $wa"
else
echo "Who are you?"
fi
Result:
user@user-desk:~$ ./sc.sh
./sc.sh: line 3: [user=: command not found
Who are you?
user@user-desk:~$
Any ideas?
Hi.
First, user doesn't have to be in quotes. It's a literal string.
Second, if you'd looked at the original solution given you'd see that spaces are important here.
if [ "$wa" = user ]; then
Not
if ["$wa"= user]; then
if [ ${user:-NULL} = user ];then
Just in case 
Not sure that's neccessary, if you use quotes, but OK 
Thanks!!!
