problem 1, due this week Write a Bash script, count.sh, which builds a table of counts for the commands under /bin which start with each letter. For example, if there are 3 commands starting with "a" (alsaumute, arch & awk) while there may be 2 commands starting with "z" (zcat & zsh). The first and last lines your script will print would be: a 3 ... z 2 Hint: use loop and array to design and implement this script. 6-9-15

Homework 1 revu ls /bin > /tmp/x letters=(a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z) for i in ${letters[*]} do x=0 echo -n "$i " grep "^${i}" /tmp/x | while read file let x=x+1 echo $x > count done cat count 6-9-15

Problem 2 Write a Bash script, reverse.sh, which reverses the contents of a directory passed as a parameter. For example, assuming /my/dir contains cache cron games lib log run tmp, your program "reverse.sh /my/dir" will return "tmp run log lib games cron cache." Hint: use an array and two functions: main() and reverse(). Do not use the built-in command sort -r. 6-9-15

problem 3 Write a Bash script, filter.sh, which prints those files/directories that have the size greater than the average file size of the directory passed as its first argument . Suppose for example that the directory /my/dir has five files/directories with size in parentheses : a (100) b (10) c (100) d (100) e (20), your program "filter.sh /my/dir" will list "a c d" since the size of each of these 3 files is greater than the average file size of 66. Hint: you can use 3 functions to do this: main, average, and filter, where main calls average and filter, and average computes the average file size of a directory and filter filters out those that have less than the average. 6-9-15

problem 4 Write a Bash script, insert-sort.sh, which sorts a list of command line parameters in ascending order. For example, your command will look something like:  $ insert-sort.sh 7 2 3 9 -1 and type enter. Your program will return: -1 2 3 7 9 Use only basic commands and array. Do not use any built-in commands that sort array. 6-9-15
