I have file <temp_test.sh>
in which I have defined a variable Min_Inc=300000
.
I then want to get the user input to change the value of Min_Inc
. I followed these steps.
- Read the value using
echo $Min_Inc
and displayed it. - Sought User input for the new value and read it with
read New_Val
. - Tried replacing
Min_Inc=300000
withMin_Inc=$New_Val
usingsed
assed 's/Min_Inc=300000/Min_Inc=$New_Val/'
This gives an error message. Moreover, I want to make this change permanent which I can make by redirecting the output to another file.
