7. Learning Outcomes (Week five) Review test condition Write Perl scripts, including variables, control flow, and regular expression syntax Course expected outcome
8. Test Condition if test ! -s"$1" then echo $1 does not exist or is empty. fi If the file specified by the first positional parameter to the shell procedure, $1, does not exist or is of size 0, the test command displays the message. If $1 exists and has a size greater than 0, the test command displays nothing. Course expected outcome
9. Test Condition test 100 -gt 99 && echo "Yes, that's true." || echo "No, that's false.“ This command will print the text "Yes, that's true." because 100 is greater than 99. text 100 -lt 99 && echo "Yes." || echo "No." This command will print the text "No." because 100 is not less than 99. Course expected outcome
10. Test Condition [ "awesome" = "awesome" ]; echo $? This command will print "0" because the expression is true; the two strings are identical. [ 5 -eq 6 ]; echo $? This command will print "1" because the expression is false; 5 does not equal 6. Course expected outcome
11. Process and multitasking The UNIX kernel can keep track of many processes at one time, and dividing it’s time to other system tasks. Each process submitted to the kernel is assigned a unique process ID (PID). In every version of UNIX, the PID range is 0 through 32,000 and is restrained to 5 digits. UNIX Operating System
12. A single-tasking operating systems only performs one task at a time. The user of a single-task system can switch from one window to another window, executing a different application, but only one task is ever active at a time. When a user switches from one window to another window, the switched task that is left, is suspended, until the user switches back to it. Suspended tasks are not allocated system resources, but remain as it was when it was suspended. When a suspended tasks resumes execution, it starts where it left off, as if nothing ever occurred. UNIX Operating System
13. Killing processes At times a process must be terminated prior to its normal intended completion. The UNIX shell provides a utility named, kill to end the execution of a process. Prior to issuing the kill command to terminate a process, the processes PID must be determined by using the ps –f command. The kill command is also used to send a preparatory signal(s) to an executing process prior to receiving a termination signal. A process can only be terminated by the owner of the process or by root. The syntax format for the kill command is as follows: kill [-options] process-ID UNIX Operating System
14. Parent and child processes Each UNIX process has two unique numbers associated with them. One is the Process ID (PID) and the second one is the Parent Process ID (PPID). All user processes in the system has a PPID, except for the init process, which will be addressed in the course boot-up procedure. UNIX Operating System
15. Orphan and zombie processes Normally, when a child process is terminated, the parent process receives a SIGCHLD (code 17) signal from the kernel. After the parent receives the SIGCHLD signal, the parent can perform any last minute task or restart a new child process prior to the termination of its child. However, if the parent is terminated prior to its child process, the child process is left without a parent. If this situation occurs, the child process becomes an orphan and the init process becomes its new parent process. The orphan process will then be assigned a PPID of 1.The term used to best describe the init processes action is re-parenting. UNIX Operating System
16. When a process is terminated, but still displays its presence on the system in a Z state. This is a zombie, or defunct process on the system. A zombie is a process that completed execution, but is dead. It does not consume system resources. It retains an entry in the process table. A good process display command is ps –aux. UNIX Operating System
17. Daemon process A daemon process is often a system related background process. Normally, a daemon process comes into being during boot-up and terminates when the system is rebooted or shutdown. A daemon process is not attached to a terminal like a foreground process. Verification of this attribute can be observed by performing the ps –ef command, and observing the tty field, all daemon processes display a ? in this field. UNIX Operating System
18. Daemon processes execute in the background and few know that they exist. Daemons execute waiting for data to be passed to them from some application, such as, a database, network, or printer daemon waiting for a print command. Daemon processes normal are known as service providers. UNIX Operating System
19. Top command The top command is a useful tool for displaying processes sorted by various criteria. It is an interactive tool that updates frequently and displays data about physical and virtual devices, CPU usage, and load averages. UNIX Operating System
20. Finger command The finger command displays information about users on a specific host. Local host finger Obtain specific information on a user on a local machine: finger dandrear View all the logged in users on a remote machine: finger @microsoft.com Get information about a specific user on a remote machine finger dandrear@microsoft.com UNIX Operating System
21. Umask Calculation umask setting = 027 Complement of umask = 750 File default permission setting = 666 Directory default permission setting = 777 The resultant permissions are calculated via bitwise AND of the unary complement of the argument (using bitwise NOT) and the permissions specified by the program. UNIX Operating System
22. Regular Expressions Definition: Regular expression provides a concise and flexible means for "matching" (specifying and recognizing) strings of text, such as particular characters, words, or patterns of characters. Abbreviations for "regular expression" include "regex" and "regexp". The concept of regular expressions was first popularized by utilities provided by Unix distributions, in particular the editor “ed” and the command/filter grep. Example: if ( /UNIX V5/ ) { print “UNIX V5 found on system. \n”; } UNIX Operating System
23. Regular Expressions Substitution operator: s/original value/new value/ Character class: Matches a single character that is contained within the brackets [ a-zA-Z0-9_ ] Special or meta characters are used to denote actions or delimit groups: + means “one or more of whatever was before the + symbol” . Matches any single character (i.e., x.z) ^ Matches the starting position within the string $ Matches the ending position of the string or the position just before a string-ending newline UNIX Operating System
24. Regular Expressions ^[A-Z0-9._%+-]+@[A-Z0-9.-]+\.[A-Z]{2,4}$ UNIX Operating System
25. What is ELF? Executable and Linking Format (ELF) is a common standard file format for executables, object code, shared libraries, and core dumps. UNIX Operating System
26. Perl Syntax ; End of statement delimiter , Comma for line continuation \n New line (non-printable character) <> The "diamond operator", <> is used when a program is expecting input, but isn't concerned how it arrives. UNIX Operating System
27. Perl Syntax $ Singular variables prefix (single value, number or string) @ Prefix for plural variable (array) % Prefix for plural variable (hash) $_ Default variable It Is the "it" variable. It's often the default parmthat built-in functions use, or return into. $0 Contains the name of the program being run UNIX Operating System
28. Perl Syntax while ( … ) { Action statements } What is a continuous loop? while ( 2 ) { Action statements } UNIX Operating System
29. Perl Syntax The Perl language does not support case or switch statements. The closest way to achieve case evaluations is as follows: if ( $condition_one ) { action_one ();    }elsif ( $condition_two ) {action_two ();    }    ...elsif {action_n ();    } UNIX Operating System
30. Three Types of for loops my @array; # Old style C for loops for (my $i = 0; $i < 10; $i++) {        $array[$i] = $i;    } # Iterating loops    for my $i (@array) {        print "$i\n";    } UNIX Operating System
31. Three Types of for loops (continued) # Postfix for loops    print "$_\n" for @array; UNIX Operating System
32. Perl Syntax foreach $total (12,9,3,7) { # Sum each value in the list. $sum += $total; } UNIX Operating System
33. Perl Syntax foreach (-32,10,1,2,0,-1) { # Valid numbers are considered to be greater than zero # The default variable is utilized, if ( $_ > 0 ) { # Print each valid number on a single output line. print "$_\n"; } } UNIX Operating System
34. Open Statement The open function can be used to create file handles for different purposes (input, output, and piping), you need to be able to specify which behavior you want. When you open a data file in Perl, all you have to do is specify (a) a file handle and (b) the name of the file you want to read from. open (CHECKBOOK, "checkbook.txt"); UNIX Operating System
35. Open functions open(file_handler, “file_name”) open(file_handler, “<file_name”) open (file_handler, “>file_name”) open (file_handler, “>>file_name”) See page 21 in your Perl text. UNIX Operating System
36. Filehandle is utilized for both input and output files. Most file names are cryptic and are meaningless to programmers. The purpose of a filehandle is to help the programmer remember a simple file name throughout a program. A filehandle is a name given for a file, device, socket, or pipe. Filehandle command line format: open(filehandle, file name, permissions, chmod); Example: open($FH,$file_name); UNIX Operating System
37. If you want to read text from a file line-by-line, then use the following syntax: my @lines = <FILE>; The <FILE> operator - where FILE is a previously opened filehandle - returns all the unread lines of the text file in list context or a single line in scalar context. Hence, if you had a particularly large file and you wanted to conserve memory you could process it line by line: while (<FILE>) { print $_; } UNIX Operating System
38. What is List Processing? @math_array = (6 - 4, 4 * 4, 8 / 2, 9 - 8); while ( … ) { … } UNIX Operating System
39. What is List Processing? @math_array = (6 - 4, 4 * 4, 8 / 2, 9 - 8); while ( … ) { … } Perl's for loop, or for statement, is used to loop through a designated block of code until a specific condition is met. UNIX Operating System
40. What is a “for” loop? for (counter = 0; counter < 10; counter++) { … } Three expressions are contained in a for loop: 1. Set initial state of the loop variable 2. Condition test the loop variable 3. Modify the state of the loop variable UNIX Operating System
41. foreachStatement Format foreach VAR (List) { … } UNIX Operating System
42. foreachStatement Format @myNames = ('Larry', 'Curly', 'Moe'); foreach (@myNames) { print $_;} UNIX Operating System
43. Perl Program Statement #!/usr/bin/perl #!/usr/bin/perl–w UNIX Operating System
44. Print continuation statement print "error: incorrect number of arguments", "\n", "usage: intlist a b (where a < b)", "\n"; UNIX Operating System
45. Points of interest Online Documentation Websites that have Perl documentation. The two biggest ones are: http://perldoc.perl.org/ http://search.cpan.org/ for modules UNIX Operating System
46. Demonstrate Perl script: ./array_display.pl ./array_sort.pl ./diamond_oper.pl <file name> ./diamond_oper.pl ./perl_it.pl and perl_loop.pl ./read_list.pl ./sum_list.pl ./linenum.pl and ./intlist.pl UNIX Operating System
