To whom so ever it may concern..
Hi,
I find that the expr command in my linux shell is not working for multiplying
two arguments. please help me out how could i multiply two numbers in a shell
and how could i use the command in my shell scripts..
when i type expr 2 * 3 it is giving syntax error.
whereas if i type expr 2 + 3 it is giving me the correct result '5'.
Thank you
awaiting your reply..
Saran.
