Hi,
I would like to do something like
for i in USD GBP
do
$i=somevalue

does not work, of course.
Any idea on how to create (and fill variables through a loop)?
greetings, el

There are many tutorials for getting started with shell scripting available,
such as https://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/index.html which has a "for/in loop"
example at https://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/loops1.html
Which shell will you be working in?
