help with SIMPLE bash script

[andyrobo60]

I am new to bash scripting and am having trouble writing a script that just runs a python script over and over in an infinite loop. So far what I have is



#!=/bin/sh
while[1] do
$HOME/python/script.py
done


This runs my script once when my python script exits I then get "bashscript.sh: 4: Syntax error: "done" unexpected" and the bash script ends.
Can someone please point out the mistake in the script

Well, I can see a few mistakes there but try putting the do on a separate line.

[Mr. C.]

You can keep the "do" on the same line, but need a semicolon. You can also replace the [1] test with a : as in :


#!=/bin/sh
while : ; do
$HOME/python/script.py
done
