syntax error: unexpected end of file

Question

#!/bin/csh -f

set no=1460
while ("$no">0)
if [$no>900]; then
 set m=3
else if ["$no">450 && "$no"<901]; then
 set  m=2
else
 set m=1
fi
mv *$no.bin test/abc-$m-$no.bin
set no =$no-1
end

I'm trying to rename 1460 files using a csh script, but I get a syntax error "syntax error: unexpected end of file" I'm on tcsh shell.
I've tried both fi and end to end the if condition. I get the same error.

Answer 1

A quick Google search reveals that your IF statement syntax is probably incorrect. You may be mixing syntax from another shell.

if ( $no > 900 ) then
  set m=3
else if ( $no > 450 && $no < 901)
  set m=2
else
  set m=1
endif
