Compose a statement for execution.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```bash
|
||
|
x='echo $y'
|
||
|
echo $x
|
||
|
y=dragon
|
||
|
eval "$x"
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
The results remain in the current shell, unlike sub-shells.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```bash
|
||
|
b=basilisk
|
||
|
sh -c 'echo $b'
|
||
|
eval "g=goblin"
|
||
|
echo $g
|
||
|
```
