This question has already great answers, but here it appears that there is a slight confusion between using single equal and double equals in
if [ "$s1" == "$s2" ]
The main difference lies in which scripting language you are using. If you are using Bash then include #!/bin/bash in the starting of the script and save your script as filename.bash. To execute, use bash filename.bash - then you have to use ==.
If you are using sh then use #!/bin/sh and save your script as filename.sh. To execute use sh filename.sh - then you have to use single =. Avoid intermixing them.
