speedtest: Run a speed test and specify the output format.
$ speedtest --format=${select}
try on your machine

The command "speedtest --format=${select}" is used to run a network speed test and specifies the output format for the test result.

The "speedtest" command is a tool used to measure various aspects of network connections such as download speed, upload speed, and latency. It is often used to check the current performance of an internet connection.

The "--format" option is used to specify the output format of the speedtest result. In this case, it is set to "${select}".

The "${select}" parameter is typically used to select a specific format option from a list of available formats. It could refer to an option provided by the speedtest tool where the user can choose from various output formats, such as plain text, JSON, CSV, etc.

By using this command, the speedtest will be executed, and the result will be displayed in the chosen output format specified by "${select}".
