Re: Recomended tutoial(s) on doing arithmetic in Bash scripts

No impressive here and no stinkin' page layouts either.  However one thing 
I do use is: let "a=4+3+5+2017" let "b=a%156" let c=a%44" There's an 
addition example for variable a, a modulus and use of already defined 
variable for b variable and c variable.  Hope this helps. On Sun, 5 Mar
