what is wrong with my shell script for word guessing game?

Question

I have written a script for word guessing in bash. But is not working properly.

w = "@@@"
read -p "input word: " var

while [ "$w" != "$var" ]
do
echo "Wrong."
read -p "input word: " var
done
echo "Right answer"

Always try https://www.shellcheck.net/ first. – melpomene Apr 23 '19 at 20:42 — melpomene, Apr 23 '19 at 20:42
What's the purpose of `\c` here? – Benjamin W. Apr 23 '19 at 20:46 — Benjamin W., Apr 23 '19 at 20:46
