A single bracket ([) usually actually calls a program named [; man test or man [ for more info. Example: $ VARIABLE=abcdef $ if [ $VARIABLE == abcdef ] ; then echo yes ; else echo no ; fi yes The double bracket ([[) does the same thing (basically) as a single bracket, but is a bash builtin. $ VARIABLE=abcdef $ if [[ $VARIABLE == 123456 ]] ; then echo yes ; else echo no ; fi no Parentheses (()) are used to create a subshell. For example: $ pwd /home/user $ (cd /tmp; pwd) /tmp $ pwd /home/user As you can see, the subshell allowed you to perform operations without affecting the environment of the current shell. (a) Braces ({}) are used to unambiguously identify variables. Example: $ VARIABLE=abcdef $ echo Variable: $VARIABLE Variable: abcdef $ echo Variable: $VARIABLE123456 Variable: $ echo Variable: ${VARIABLE}123456 Variable: abcdef123456 (b) Braces are also used to execute a sequence of commands in the current shell context, e.g. $ { date; top -b -n1 | head ; } >logfile # 'date' and 'top' output are concatenated, # could be useful sometimes to hunt for a top loader ) $ { date; make 2>&1; date; } | tee logfile # now we can calculate the duration of a build from the logfile

尽管()有一个微妙的语法差异(参见bash参考);本质上是一个分号;在最后一个命令之后的大括号内是必须的，大括号{，}必须用空格包围。

我只是想从TLDP中添加这些:

~:$ echo $SHELL
/bin/bash

~:$ echo ${#SHELL}
9

~:$ ARRAY=(one two three)

~:$ echo ${#ARRAY}
3

~:$ echo ${TEST:-test}
test

~:$ echo $TEST


~:$ export TEST=a_string

~:$ echo ${TEST:-test}
a_string

~:$ echo ${TEST2:-$TEST}
a_string

~:$ echo $TEST2


~:$ echo ${TEST2:=$TEST}
a_string

~:$ echo $TEST2
a_string

~:$ export STRING="thisisaverylongname"

~:$ echo ${STRING:4}
isaverylongname

~:$ echo ${STRING:6:5}
avery

~:$ echo ${ARRAY[*]}
one two one three one four

~:$ echo ${ARRAY[*]#one}
two three four

~:$ echo ${ARRAY[*]#t}
one wo one hree one four

~:$ echo ${ARRAY[*]#t*}
one wo one hree one four

~:$ echo ${ARRAY[*]##t*}
one one one four

~:$ echo $STRING
thisisaverylongname

~:$ echo ${STRING%name}
thisisaverylong

~:$ echo ${STRING/name/string}
thisisaverylongstring

在Bash中，test和[是shell内置的。

双括号是shell关键字，它支持额外的功能。例如，您可以使用&&和||来代替-a和-o，并且有一个正则表达式匹配操作符=~。

此外，在一个简单的测试中，双方括号的计算速度似乎比单方括号快得多。

$ time for ((i=0; i<10000000; i++)); do [[ "$i" = 1000 ]]; done

real    0m24.548s
user    0m24.337s
sys 0m0.036s
$ time for ((i=0; i<10000000; i++)); do [ "$i" = 1000 ]; done

real    0m33.478s
user    0m33.478s
sys 0m0.000s

大括号，除了分隔变量名外，还用于参数展开，这样你就可以做以下事情:

截断变量的内容 $ var = "中的";echo $ {var % d *} 美国广播公司 进行类似sed的替换 $ var = "中的";echo $ {var /德/ 12} abc12 使用默认值 默认美元=“你好”;未设置的var;echo $ {var: - $默认} 你好 还有更多

同样，大括号展开创建字符串列表，这些字符串通常在循环中迭代:

$ echo f{oo,ee,a}d
food feed fad

$ mv error.log{,.OLD}
(error.log is renamed to error.log.OLD because the brace expression
expands to "mv error.log error.log.OLD")

$ for num in {000..2}; do echo "$num"; done
000
001
002

$ echo {00..8..2}
00 02 04 06 08

$ echo {D..T..4}
D H L P T

请注意，前导零和增量特性在Bash 4之前是不可用的。

感谢gboffi提醒我关于大括号展开。

双括号用于算术运算:

((a++))

((meaning = 42))

for ((i=0; i<10; i++))

echo $((a + b + (14 * c)))

它们使您可以省略整数和数组变量上的美元符号，并在操作符周围包含空格以提高可读性。

单括号也用于数组下标:

array[4]="hello"

element=${array[index]}

右边的(most/all?)数组引用需要花括号。

Ephemient的评论提醒了我，括号也用于subshell。它们被用来创建数组。

array=(1 2 3)
echo ${array[1]}
2

关于如何使用括号对表达式进行分组和展开的其他信息: (它列在链接语法括号中)

这里有一些要点:

在子shell中分组命令:() (列表)

将当前shell中的命令分组:{} {列表;｝

Test -返回一个表达式的二进制结果:[[]] [表达式]]

算术扩张 算术展开的格式是: $(表达式)

简单算术求值的格式是: (表达)

组合多个表达式 (表达式) (expr1 && expr2))
