Hi!
I want to run a script in parallel with different arguments.

eg.

start
script.sh argA script.sh argB script.sh argC
end

Can someone please tell how to achieve this.
Thanks in advance.

you can

for ARG in argA argB argC
do
    script.sh $ARG &
done

or

for ARG in A B C
do
    script.sh arg$ARG &
done

too

It is good practise to issue a wait statement after the start of all the background processes to stop the parent shell from exiting before all of its children have finished.

for ARG in argA argB argC 
do
    script.sh $ARG &
done
wait
