Assigning dynamic bash variable names using a for loop seq

Question

So I\'m trying to do something, not sure if it\'s possible. I have the following code:

for i in {0..5}; do
    if [[ -f ./user$i ]]; then
        group$i=$(g         


        

Answer 1

Try to use the export or declare function like this

for i in {0..5}; do
    if [[ -f ./user$i ]]; then
        export group$i=$(grep -w "group" ......

with declare

for i in {0..5}; do
    if [[ -f ./user$i ]]; then
        declare group$i=$(grep -w "group" ......

where export makes the value available to sub-processes, and declare just available within the same script.
