You can use a while loop to calculate the sum of numbers from 1 to 100 by following these steps:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Open the terminal and use the following command to create a new shell script file, for example, name it sum.sh:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    nano sum.sh\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
      \n
    1. Enter the following code in the sum.sh file:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
      #!\/bin\/bash<\/span>\r\n\r\nsum<\/span>=0\r\ni=1\r\n\r\nwhile<\/span> [ $i<\/span> -le 100 ]\r\ndo<\/span>\r\n  sum<\/span>=$((sum + i))\r\n  i=$((i + 1<\/span>))\r\ndone<\/span>\r\n\r\necho<\/span> \"1\u5230100\u7684\u548c\u4e3a\uff1a$sum<\/span>\"<\/span>\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
        \n
      1. Save and exit the file, then in the terminal, enter the following command to add execute permission to the sum.sh file:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
        chmod +x sum.sh\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
          \n
        1. Finally, run the sum.sh file to find the sum of numbers from 1 to 100.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
          .\/sum.sh\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
          After running, the terminal will display the sum of numbers 1 to 100.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
