Iterate a Bash Array

Bash & Scripting · easy · solved in-browser (no VM needed) · 3 tiered hints

Write /home/player/fruits.sh (shebang #!/bin/bash) that defines an indexed array with `name=(...)`, iterates over every element with a `for` loop over "${arr[@]}", and finally prints the number of elements using ${#arr[@]}. (Authored config, graded structurally — the engine isn't run here.)
