Bash-5.2 patch 26: fix typo when specifying readline's custom color prefix
[thirdparty/bash.git] / builtins / let.def
1 This file is let.def, from which is created let.c.
2 It implements the builtin "let" in Bash.

24 $SHORT_DOC let arg [arg ...]
25 Evaluate arithmetic expressions.
26
27 Evaluate each ARG as an arithmetic expression. Evaluation is done in
28 fixed-width integers with no check for overflow, though division by 0
29 is trapped and flagged as an error. The following list of operators is
30 grouped into levels of equal-precedence operators. The levels are listed
31 in order of decreasing precedence.
32
33 id++, id-- variable post-increment, post-decrement
34 ++id, --id variable pre-increment, pre-decrement
35 -, + unary minus, plus
36 !, ~ logical and bitwise negation
37 ** exponentiation
38 *, /, % multiplication, division, remainder
39 +, - addition, subtraction
40 <<, >> left and right bitwise shifts
41 <=, >=, <, > comparison
42 ==, != equality, inequality
43 & bitwise AND
44 ^ bitwise XOR
45 | bitwise OR
46 && logical AND
47 || logical OR
48 expr ? expr : expr
49 conditional operator
50 =, *=, /=, %=,
51 +=, -=, <<=, >>=,
52 &=, ^=, |= assignment
53
54 Shell variables are allowed as operands. The name of the variable
55 is replaced by its value (coerced to a fixed-width integer) within
56 an expression. The variable need not have its integer attribute
57 turned on to be used in an expression.
58
59 Operators are evaluated in order of precedence. Sub-expressions in
60 parentheses are evaluated first and may override the precedence
61 rules above.
62
63 Exit Status:
64 If the last ARG evaluates to 0, let returns 1; let returns 0 otherwise.
