I have a function that can return different values:
function create_node() {
if ...
return 1
elif...
return 3
else ...
return 4
}
How do I check if a return value is in an interval
create_node
if [[ $? is from 1 to 6 included ]]; then

A function cannot have more than 1 return statement – Inian Sep 24 '18 at 08:53

@Inian, is a conditional return, not all are return at the same time – user3541631 Sep 24 '18 at 08:56

Check if min of range is <= result and max of range is >= result. I dont know bash syntax, but something like if [[1 <= $? && 6 >= $? – Programnik Sep 24 '18 at 08:56

@user3541631: Use `$?` in place of the variables in the duplicated question. Or simply just `if [ "$?" -ge 1 -a "$?" -le 6 ]; then` – Inian Sep 24 '18 at 09:00
