下面是一個例子，使用所有的關係運算子：
#!/bin/sh a=10 b=20 if [ $a -eq $b ] then echo "$a -eq $b : a is equal to b" else echo "$a -eq $b: a is not equal to b" fi if [ $a -ne $b ] then echo "$a -ne $b: a is not equal to b" else echo "$a -ne $b : a is equal to b" fi if [ $a -gt $b ] then echo "$a -gt $b: a is greater than b" else echo "$a -gt $b: a is not greater than b" fi if [ $a -lt $b ] then echo "$a -lt $b: a is less than b" else echo "$a -lt $b: a is not less than b" fi if [ $a -ge $b ] then echo "$a -ge $b: a is greater or equal to b" else echo "$a -ge $b: a is not greater or equal to b" fi if [ $a -le $b ] then echo "$a -le $b: a is less or equal to b" else echo "$a -le $b: a is not less or equal to b" fi
這將產生以下結果：
10 -eq 20: a is not equal to b 10 -ne 20: a is not equal to b 10 -gt 20: a is not greater than b 10 -lt 20: a is less than b 10 -ge 20: a is not greater or equal to b 10 -le 20: a is less or equal to b
記下有以下幾點：
運算子和表示式之間必須有空格，例如2+2是不正確的，它應該寫成2 + 2。
if...then...else...fi 語句是下一章節中要解釋的決策宣告。
