retry: Retry a command until it succeeds.
$ retry ${command}
try on your machine
The command "retry ${command}" is used when you want to repeatedly execute a specific command or set of commands, depending on the value stored in the variable "command".
Here's how it works:
- The variable "command" holds the specific command or set of commands that you want to execute repeatedly.
- The keyword "retry" is used to indicate that the specified command should be retried if it fails.
- When the "retry" command is encountered, the specified "command" is executed once.
- If the execution of the "command" is successful, the program continues to execute the next line of code after the "retry" command.
- However, if the execution of the "command" fails (e.g., returns an error or exception), the program goes back to the "retry" command and executes the "command" again.
- This process continues until the execution of the "command" is successful or a certain condition is met (e.g., a maximum number of retries is reached).
In summary, the "retry ${command}" command is used to repeatedly execute a specific command until it succeeds or meets a certain condition.
