Hello I am trying to move a group of directories with the mv command and curly braces expansion as follows:
#!/bin/bash
...
group_name=$1
group=$((total/set))
group=$((group-1))
mkdir "$group_name""1"
mv dat{10.."$group"} "$group_name""1"
...
The function is used as follows:
grouping_dirs total set group_name
e.g: grouping_dirs 30 2 dir_name
And the list of directories I have are:
dat10 dat11 dat12 dat13 dat14 dat15 and so on.
But I want to move only the directories dat{10..14} to dir_name1.
However I get the following error:
mv: cannot stat 'dat{10..14}': No such file or directory
Even though the directories exists. I know that because I tried changing:
mv dat{10.."$group"} ... to mv dat{10..14} ...
And it worked. I think I am not correctly using " " within the curly braces, but I am rather new to bash scripting...So I would appreciate your insight!
Thanks!
