Condition in bash script

Question

I want get [4 file name string] from user and pass these parameters to bash script. script should copy files in user home directory.

FYI: each file might be exist or not, might be one of them exist or four of them.

What type of condition should I use? if, case, elseif? Here is my script

!/bin/bash

for var in "$@" ; do
    T1=$1
    T2=$2
    if [ $T1 = "File1" ]; then
        cp file1 /home/users
    else      
        if [ $T2 = "File2" ]; then
            cp file2 /home/users
        ....
        fi
    fi 
done

Answer 1

if, elif and case are all essentially the same thing, they're conditionals.

The difference is stylistic. Technically you could write entire enterprise programs only using case, and not if and elif or the other way around.

Use whatever you'll find the easiest to understand when you come back to your script in 9 months time and have completely forgotten what it does.
