Shell Programming and Scripting
1

Hey folks!

I am new to shell-scripting, but I have a problem that I would like to solve using a script. I create very large html forms, used for randomized trials. In these forms, each question is supplied with a variable that looks something like this: PROJECT_formNN
Where NN is the question number. Say I need to put in a question in the middle, the whole line of questions after this one are then put out of order.

Solution?

I am not clearly but i try to write something.
For exa you have some questions in a file that named 'questions'

#!/bin/bash
q=questions
nn=$(wc -l <$q)
NN=1
while read -r quest
 do
   echo "$quest">PROJECT_form$NN
   ((NN++))
 done<$q

# cat questions
What is your name?
Where are you from?
How about?
Are you joking me?
What is your favourite singer?

# for i in {1..5}
> do
> cat PROJECT_form$i
> done
