Sometimes you are stuck. Then this often helps, even outside the music industry:
[WayBack] Oblique strategies – defeat creative block: Draw random Oblique Strategy cards to break through creative block.
These are disruptive which is the whole point being stuck.
Obey the first and only rule: pick the first card and apply what it says.
Both above failures kill the randomness of the above strategy.

A while ago, I had to execute a series of aliases of which the names were stored in an array. A simple for loop with en eval call did the job.
Then I found out there are at least two more ways of evaluation in bash, so here are just a few links giving me a head start if I ever dig this up again:
Note that looping over parameters is different than over an array: [WayBack] Loop through an array of strings in Bash? – Stack Overflow
ou can use it like this:
## declare an array variable declare -a arr=("element1" "element2" "element3") ## now loop through the above array for i in "${arr[@]}" do echo "$i" # or do whatever with individual element of the array done # You can access them using echo "${arr[0]}", "${arr[1]}" alsoAlso works for multi-line array declaration
declare -a arr=("element1" "element2" "element3" "element4" )
