In the next example, lots of global variables are used over and over again, but the script "unfortunately" works anyway. The `parse_json()` function does not even return a value and the two functions shares their variables. You could also write all this without any function; this would have the same effect.

### Return values ###
|

|

Always check return values and give informative return values.
|

|
||||
For unpiped commands, use `$?` or check directly via an if statement to keep it simple.

### Eval ###
|

|

Eval is evil! Eval munges the input when used for assignment to variables and can set variables without making it possible to check what those variables were. Avoid `eval` if possible.
