## Use && for logical AND. Single & will background and return true.
|
||||
|
||||
### Problematic code:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
if [ "$1" = "install" ] & [ "$USER" != "root" ]
|
||||
then
|
||||
echo "Must be root to install"
|
||||
fi
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Correct code:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
if [ "$1" = "install" ] && [ "$USER" != "root" ]
|
||||
then
|
||||
echo "Must be root to install"
|
||||
fi
|
||||
```
|
||||
### Rationale:
|
||||
|
||||
ShellCheck found a `test` command followed by a `&`. This runs the test in the background, effectively ignoring it. To specify "logical AND" between two commands, use `&&`.
