Whenever i try to save a variable in .bashrc file of my home directory, it's not giving me the desired result.
I'm trying to save

But when i do echo $D in shell, it doesn’t give any result.

Saving the export to your.bashrcwon't affect the current shell - are you re-sourcing.bashrc(. ~/.bashrc) or starting a new shell?
