The script works fine as it should, it shows the folders contained on a given path, but I am trying to add a counter to know how many there are but it won't work I've tryed many things, googled etc but can't get it right What's the problem? Sorry for the Spanish
the code

it prints this
You must use "let" in front of your variable reassignment in the loop.
let $contador = $contador + 1
try let but this way
let contador = $contador + 1
example:
[~]=> c=100; for i in {0..45}; do let c=$c+1; done; echo $c
146
On the side note, your whole script looks to do this :
find . -type d -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 -print | wc -l
any particular reason you don't use find?
You can't do variable assignment with the dollar symbol on the left side. That is, you should do:
var=...
Not
$var=...
And, in addition to using 'let' you can increment your variable like this
var=$(( var + 1 ))
