Subject: 99 bottles of beer
Date: Sun, 29 Oct 1995 03:22:08 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <199510290822.DAA02545@redwood.skiles.gatech.edu> (raw)
On the web page
http://www.ionet.net/~timtroyr/funhouse/beer.html
There are programs/scripts that will generate the
words to "99 bottles of beer on the wall" in many
different languages. Since there was a version for
sh and 2 versions for csh, I decided we needed to
submit one for zsh. This is what I came up with.
Unfortunately it doesn't use any cool features of
zsh.
Any suggestions for improvement?

printbottles() {
local bottles
if (($1 == 0)) then
bottles="no more bottles of beer"
elif (($1 == 1)) then

else
bottles="$1 bottles of beer"
fi
print -n $bottles$2
}
integer i=100
while((i > 0))
do
printbottles $i " on the wall, "
printbottles $i ".\n"
((i--))
print -n "Take one down, pass it around, "
printbottles $i " on the wall.\n"
done
