Created SC1000: $ is not used specially and should therefore be escaped. (markdown)
@@ -0,0 +1,15 @@

### Rationale:
|
||||
`$` is special in double quotes, but there are some cases where it's interpreted literally:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Following a backslash: `echo "\$"`
|
||||
2. In a context where the shell can't make sense of it, such as at the end of the string, (`"foo$"`) or before some constructs (`"$'foo'"`).
|
||||
|
||||
To avoid relying on strange and shell specific behavior, any `$` intended to be literal should be escaped with a backslash.
|
||||
|
||||
### Problematic sample code:
|
||||
|
||||
echo "$"
|
||||
|
||||
### Correct sample code:
|
||||
|
||||
echo "\$"
