I have a very simple script number_guess.sh which is running inside a docker container and using vs-code with utf-8 character encoding in settings without automatically changing encoding based on file.
#!/bin/bash
echo "hello!";
HELLO () {
# function budy
}
This keeps generating the following error:
./number_guess.sh: line 7: syntax error near unexpected token `}'
./number_guess.sh: line 7: `}'
I have tried adding and removing spaces but to no avail. I have also tried to explicitly save file with encoding utf-8 using the editor but also to no avail.
I don't know what is causing the issue and I feel lost.
Your function body cannot be empty:
HELLO() {
echo "hello!"
}
This will work
