1. Bourne Shell (/bin/sh) counting?
Some people think that this answer is best thought of as a techie joke...
count=`expr $count + 1`
^ ^ ^ ^ ^
The spaces a VERY significant, as are the reversed quotes. However it works
and is useful in several of scripts.
This is even funnier:
count=` echo $count|awk '{print $1 + 1}'`
I'd like to see a neat solution (other than a "increment.c" program).
