I’m trying to create the program to read each lines and calculate each line’s

  • 0

I’m trying to create the program to read each lines and calculate each line’s average and store into array…For example, program will read first line, add all the numbers and divide by 24 to calculate the average which will be stored into Avg_list[1].
When I try to run the program, I encounter following error, I have no idea why it doesn’t work… Can someone identify the problem?

Code: in Ksh

 c=0
 while read -r line ; do
     v=$line
     set -- $v    ((g=($2+$3+$4+$5+$6+$7+$8+$9+$10+$11+$12+$13+$14+$15+$16+$17+$18+$19+$20+$21+$22+$23+$24+$25+$26)/24))
      echo $g
      Avg_list[${c}]=$g
      ((c=c+1))
  done < daily.txt

EDIT

    while read -r line ; do

    echo $g
    Avg_list[${c}]=$g
    ((c=c+1))

New error:

Thanks for your suggestions! when I tried used bracket i get this error…I’m now even more confused….it seems like it’s not collecting numbers at all…

    #!/bin/ksh
    
    while read -r line ; do
        v=$line
        set -- $v
        ((g=(${2}+${3}+${4}+${5}+${6}+${7}+${8}+${9}+${10}+${11}+${12}+${13}+${14}+${15}+${16}+${17}+${18}+${19}+${20}+${21}+${22}+${23}+${24}+${25})/24))
        echo $g
        Avg_list[${c}]=$g
        ((c=c+1))
    done < daily.txt
    

    You were missing one ( at g=${2} and the arguments only go until ${25} not ${26}.
