我怎么用echo来做呢?

perl -E 'say "=" x 100'

当前回答

如果你想重复一个字符n次,n是一个变量的次数,这取决于,比如说,字符串的长度,你可以这样做:

#!/bin/bash
vari='AB'
n=$(expr 10 - length $vari)
echo 'vari equals.............................: '$vari
echo 'Up to 10 positions I must fill with.....: '$n' equal signs'
echo $vari$(perl -E 'say "=" x '$n)

它显示:

vari equals.............................: AB  
Up to 10 positions I must fill with.....: 8 equal signs  
AB========

稍微长一点的版本,但如果你出于某种原因必须使用纯Bash,你可以使用一个带增量变量的while循环:

n=0; while [ $n -lt 100 ]; do n=$((n+1)); echo -n '='; done

一种纯粹的Bash方式,没有eval,没有subshell,没有外部工具,没有大括号展开(即,你可以在变量中重复数字):

如果给你一个变量n,它展开为一个(非负的)数字和一个变量模式,例如,

$ n=5
$ pattern=hello
$ printf -v output '%*s' "$n"
$ output=${output// /$pattern}
$ echo "$output"
hellohellohellohellohello

你可以用它来创建一个函数:

repeat() {
    # $1=number of patterns to repeat
    # $2=pattern
    # $3=output variable name
    local tmp
    printf -v tmp '%*s' "$1"
    printf -v "$3" '%s' "${tmp// /$2}"
}

这套:

$ repeat 5 hello output
$ echo "$output"
hellohellohellohellohello

对于这个小技巧,我们经常使用printf:

-v varname: instead of printing to standard output, printf will put the content of the formatted string in variable varname. '%*s': printf will use the argument to print the corresponding number of spaces. E.g., printf '%*s' 42 will print 42 spaces. Finally, when we have the wanted number of spaces in our variable, we use a parameter expansion to replace all the spaces by our pattern: ${var// /$pattern} will expand to the expansion of var with all the spaces replaced by the expansion of $pattern.


你也可以通过间接展开来去掉repeat函数中的tmp变量:

repeat() {
    # $1=number of patterns to repeat
    # $2=pattern
    # $3=output variable name
    printf -v "$3" '%*s' "$1"
    printf -v "$3" '%s' "${!3// /$2}"
}
printf -- '=%.0s' {1..100}

双破折号——表示“命令行标志的结束”,所以不要试图解析命令行选项后面的内容。

如果你想打印破折号字符,而不是=字符,多次,不包括双破折号-这是你会得到的:

$ printf '-%.0s' {1..100}
bash: printf: -%: invalid option
printf: usage: printf [-v var] format [arguments]

为什么不创建这样的一行函数呢:

function repeat() { num="${2:-100}"; printf -- "$1%.0s" $(seq 1 $num); }

然后,你可以这样调用它:

$ repeat -
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

或者像这样:

$ repeat =
====================================================================================================

或者像这样:

$ repeat '*' 8
********
for i in {1..100}
do
  echo -n '='
done
echo
