I'm trying to create a simple program to create a new folder from an argument passed by the user. From this I get the error mkdir: cannot create directory "": No such file or directory when I'm passing an argument.

echo $folder 

if [ ! -d "$folder" ];
    then
    mkdir -p "$folder"
fi

In your script you can access the first argument passed to it (from the command line) with `$1` – Fravadona Nov 08 '21 at 12:06
