Develop simple shell programs using Bash or any other shell in Linux.

• Simple testing program in vi editor using Bash


vi abc.sh

chmod +x abc.sh

~$ ls -l
total 4
-rw-r--r-- 1 user user 0 Apr 21 15:39 2024-04-21-terminal-1.term
-rw-r--r-- 1 user user 0 Apr 21 15:39 2024-04-21-terminal-2.term
-rw-r--r-- 1 user user 20 Apr 21 14:31 abc
-rwxr-xr-x 1 user user 57 Apr 21 15:44 abc.sh
-rw-r--r ~$

~$ ./abc.sh
Linux Shell Testing
Welcome in linux Shell

• Sum of two numbers using bash

#!/bin/bash
# Prompt the user to enter the first number
echo "Enter the first number:"
read num1
# Prompt the user to enter the second number
echo "Enter the second number:"
read num2
# Perform the addition
sum=$((num1 + num2))
# Display the result
echo "The sum of $num1 and $num2 is: $sum"
Output:

~$ vi sum.sh

~$ ls -l

total 5

-rw-r--r-- 1 user user 0 Apr 21 15:39 2024-04-21-terminal-1.term

-rw-r--r-- 1 user user 0 Apr 21 15:39 2024-04-21-terminal-2.term

-rw-r--r-- 1 user user 20 Apr 21 14:31 abc

-rwxr-xr-x 1 user user 57 Apr 21 15:44 abc.sh

-rw-r--r-- 1 user user 57 Apr 21 15:44 apiit.txt

-rw-r--r-- 1 user user 294 Apr 21 15:54 sum.sh

~$ chmod +x sum.sh

~$ ./sum.sh

Enter the first number:

20

Enter the second number:

30

The sum of 20 and 30 is: 50

Program-3

Develop advanced shell programs using grep, fgrep & egrep

#!/bin/bash

echo "Enter the pattern to search for:"

read pattern
echo "Enter the filename:"

read filename

echo "Results for pattern '$pattern' in file '$filename':"

grep "$pattern" "$filename"

Output :

vi grep1.sh

~$ chmod +x grep1.sh

~$ ./grep1.sh

Enter the pattern to search for:

first

Enter the filename:

sum.sh

Results for pattern 'first' in file 'sum.sh':

# Prompt the user to enter the first number

echo "Enter the first number:"


4.Using fgrep for fixed string matching:

#!/bin/bash

# Define the pattern to search for


pattern="APIIT"

# Iterate over all files in the current directory


for file in *; do
# Check if the current item is a file
if [ -f "$file" ]; then
# Use fgrep to search for the pattern in the current file
if fgrep -q "$pattern" "$file"; then
echo "Pattern '$pattern' found in file: $file"
else
echo "Pattern '$pattern' not found in file: $file"
fi
fi
done

Output:

$ cat>file

my name is vishav. i am doing BTECCH FROM APIIT.

APIIT ENG AND MANAGEMENT COLLEGE.

Ctrl+d

5. Count the occurrences of a pattern in a file:


#!/bin/bash
echo "Enter the pattern to count:"
read pattern
echo "Enter the filename:"
read filename
count=$(grep -o "$pattern" "$filename" | wc -l)
echo "Number of occurrences of '$pattern' in '$filename': $count"
6. Program using awk command with database.txt
File database.txt
Name Age Gender Occupation
John 30 Male Engineer
Alice 25 Female Doctor
Bob 40 Male Teacher

Program:

#!/usr/bin/awk -f

# Print specific columns (Name and Gender)

print $1, $3

# Filter based on condition (Gender is "Male")

$3 == "Male"

# Calculate statistics (Average age)

NR > 1 {

total += $2

# Customized output (Greeting the first person)

NR == 1 {

print "Welcome " $1 ", you are a " $4 ". How can I assist you?"

# End of script

END {
if (NR > 1) {

print "Average age:", total/(NR-1)

Output:
