is there is a command in bash that checks if a program can or cannot run -
i origin larn how create bash scripts.
i want know if there way test if programme can run or not. example, want test if ncl runs.
if write ncl on terminal 
xxx$ ncl dyld: library not loaded: /usr/local/lib/libgomp.1.dylib   referenced from: /usr/local/ncl-6.2.1/bin/ncl   reason: image not found trace/bpt trap: 5    that means ncl installed,  programme cannot run due lack of library.
i want know if there command in bash gives me 1 or 0 depending if ncl (or other program) runs or doesn't run.
you should able check homecoming value of command in bash this...
somecommand  argument1 argument2 retval=$? [ $retval -eq 0 ] && echo success [ $retval -ne 0 ] && echo failure        bash
