I'm not familiar with that syntax. What language, if any? Nothing but a little prettied up Bash shell. Instead of using a if [[ $X == $Y ]] ; then echo equal else echo not equal fi we can use (( $X == $Y )) && echo equal || not equal Much less cluttered. And the ${X} is the same thing as $X but any time you do a $X$Y thing it is always better to do it as ${X}${Y} to help they eye figure out where one ends another begins.
