I’m learning bash-scripting, and am in the process of building a “quiz app”, which is supposed to pick a random question from a json file of questions, display the possible answers, let me pick an answer from 1 to 4 and write if I’ve chosen correctly.
As far as I can tell, I’ve followed every step the teacher made, but what I’m getting is:

QUESTION
1) ANSWER 1
ANSWER 2
ANSWER 3
ANSWER 4

Also, pressing any number, which is supposed to send the corresponding answer to verify if it’s correct, always gives me the message that this is not correct.
Here is my code:

#!/usr/bin/env bash
 
load_question() {
    local contents
    local qtotal
    local qrandom
    local question
 
    contents=$(cat ./questions.json)
    qtotal=$(echo "${contents}" | jq '.results | length')
    (( qrandom = RANDOM % qtotal ))
    question=$(echo "${contents}" | jq ".results[${qrandom}]")
    echo "${question}" | jq -r ".question"
    echo "${question}" | jq -r ".correct_answer"
    echo "${question}" | jq -r ".incorrect_answers[0]"
    echo "${question}" | jq -r ".incorrect_answers[1]"
    echo "${question}" | jq -r ".incorrect_answers[2]"
}
 
ask_question() {   
    local question="$1"
    local correct_answer="$2"
    local incorrect_answer_0="$3"
    local incorrect_answer_1="$4"
    local incorrect_answer_2="$5"
    local answers
 
    answers=$(echo -e "${correct_answer}n${incorrect_answer_0}n${incorrect_answer_1}n${incorrect_answer_2}" | sort -R)
 
    echo "${question}"
    IFS=$'n'
    select answer in "${answers}"; do
        if [[ "${answer}" == "${correct_answer}" ]]; then
            echo "You got it!"
            return 0
        
        else
            echo "This ain't it, chief!"
            return 1
        fi
    done
 
    
}
 
main() {
    local question
    local correct_answer
    local incorrect_answer_0
    local incorrect_answer_1
    local incorrect_answer_2
    
    {
        read -r question
        read -r correct_answer
        read -r incorrect_answer_0
        read -r incorrect_answer_1
        read -r incorrect_answer_2
    } < <(load_question)
 
    ask_question "${question}"
                 "${correct_answer}"
                 "${incorrect_answer_0}"
                 "${incorrect_answer_1}"
                 "${incorrect_answer_2}"
}
 
 
 
main "$@"

Tried to copy the teacher’s final code.
