scc: Display output using a specific output format (defaults to `tabular`).
$ scc --format ${select}
try on your machine

The given command is "scc --format ${select}". This command is intended to use the "scc" tool with a specific format option.

Here is an explanation of the different elements in the command:

  • "scc": This is the name of a command-line tool, presumably a software complexity counter (scc). It is likely a program designed to analyze and measure the complexity of source code files.

  • "--format": This is an option flag used by the "scc" tool to specify the desired output format for the analysis results. The format option is typically followed by a specific format identifier, which is likely missing in the provided command. The format determines how the complexity metrics will be displayed or logged.

  • "${select}": This part likely refers to a variable or placeholder named "select". It can be a variable holding a specific format identifier or any other value that the user wants to dynamically provide when executing the command. The use of "${select}" suggests that the user is expected to replace it with an actual value.

To further explain the command, we would need to know more about the "scc" tool and its available format options, as well as the context in which this command is being used.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
