Let us say, i have an array: versions=(1 2 3 4) I can iterate over it by : for i in ${versions[@]} How to do this if the name of the array is decided on the basis of some other variable, hence stored in a variable Example:

array_name=${some_var}_arr

declare -a ${array_name}

How do I iterate over elements of array whose name is stored in array_name. I tried 

for i in ${${array_name}[@]}

Got bad substitution error
