Use a script to take two numbers as arguments and output their sum using (i) bc (ii) expr. include error – checking to test whether two arguments were entered?<\/p>\n

tpatil replied the topic: Re: Shell script program 2<\/strong>
\nIf I understand correctly your question, You want to pass 2 parameters to shell script and print the sum of those. Also, you want to throw error if the number of parametrs are less than 2.<\/p>\n

#!\/bin\/bash<\/p>\n

if [ $# -lt 2 ]
\nthen
\n echo \"Usage: $0 arg1 arg2\"
\n exit
\nfi<\/p>\n

echo \"\\$1=$1\"
\necho \"\\$2=$2\"<\/p>\n

let add=$1+$2
\nlet sub=$1-$2<\/p>\n

echo -e \"Addition=$add\\nSubtraction=$sub\\n\"<\/code><\/p>\n

Hope this helps…<\/p>\n
