Subject: typesetting parameters
Date: Sun, 13 Jun 2004 21:54:26 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <26243486-BDAE-11D8-BDC7-000A95D2C79E@kalama.no-ip.org> (raw)
Hi list,
I'm having difficulty understanding why one would define a parameter
with typeset before using it using. For example:
integer count=1
until something; do
something else
something else
something else
(( count++ ))
done
I could just do
count=1
until something; do
something else
something else
something else
(( count++ ))
done
and get the same results, right? Similarly, if I define a scalar
variable or non-associative array with 'var=foo' and 'array=(one two
three)', is that different from doing 'typeset var=foo' and 'typeset -a
array; array=(one two three)'? Any explanations, online guides, or FMs
to R would be much appreciated.
