My unfinished vimtutor document name vi_lab that I got a B on because I was lazy
Contains other documents pertaining to lab1
All files for lab2
No custom scripts or programs
This lab contains 3 custom written progams: count.bash, reextend and organiseMusic
Usage: ./count.bash
Outputs all the files in the current directory to the screen followed by their linecount and word count
Nothing special or tricky. Does not include hidden files
Usage: ./reextend oldExt newExt
Finds all files in the current directory that end with oldExt and converts them to have newExt
Example: ./reextend A B replaces file.A with file.B and TADA with TADB
Usage: ./organiseMusic
Finds all mp3 music files within the current directory of form Artist - Song.mp3 and organises them
If needed, a directory will be created ./Artist and the mp3 file will be moved to ./Artist/Song.mp3
Feature: If ./Artist/Song.mp3 already exists, the program will generate a unique filename instead of overwriting
This lab contains two parts: REGEX an AWK
REGEX part includes no scripts, just written answers in the l4 file
AWK part contains a bash script anagram that uses other scripts to find 8 largest anagrams in server dict file
Usage: ./anagram
Checks for necessary programs and files: sign.c, squash.awk and dict file /usr/share/dict/words
Compile sign.c with gcc -o sign sign.c and checks for valid executable
After all file and requirement validation, order of operations is:
- Signs all words from
/usr/share/dict/wordswithsign - Sorts signed words into alphabetical order
- Uses
squash.awkto compile all adjacent anagrams - Enumerates the number of anagrams for each word with inline AWK program
- Sorts anagram list by count
- Displays 8 anagrams with most count
Reads list of words from STDIN and outputs the 'signed' representation of each word followed by original word
Signed version of word is the letters in alphabetical order
Reads list of signed words (from sign.c program sorted alphabetically)
Compiles words with similar signed representations
Outputs compiled list
Usage: ./zoo [-f filename] [directory] mesurement
Calling ./zoo measurement will search all directories and subdirectories from the current directory for metric files
If no metric files are found, the program will output an error
The measurement argument will be an animal name from the list: 'aardvark', 'genet', 'bear', 'lemur', and 'dromedary'
NOTE: measurement entries are case-insensitive. ./zoo genet is the same as ./zoo GeNeT
Once a metric file is found, it will search for lines that include entries of the given measurement
An example entry looks like: dromedary 10
The program will count the second field of entries for the given measurement from all metric files
Measurement should always be the LAST argument given
Default metric filename will is .KS_Dir
This can be changed by passing an optional argument BEFORE the measurement
Example: ./zoo -f .CB_Dir bear will count bear entries but only within files with the name .CB_Dir
NOTE: -f flag MUST be either 2nd or 3rd argument and the expected filename will always FOLLOW the flag
Note order when specifying metric filename AND starting directory
If metric file is found but not readable, program outputs warning message and skips the file
By default, the program begins searching from the current directory .
This can be changed by passing an argument BEFORE the measurement
Example: ./zoo A genet will count all genet entries for metric files within the ./A directory
NOTE: No flag specification for starting directory argument
Input directories are always validated for existance, filetype d and readability
The program will error for various reasons:
- No metric files found
- Starting directory does not exist/is not readable
- No arguments/more than 4 arguments passed
- Measurement not in specified list
- Invalid arguments/improper flag position
Lab 5 covers the differences between C compilers.
I tested GCC vs TCC to determine how uninitialized variables are treated.
This lab also had me write two programs: bills.c and ipay.c
Usage: ./bills
Program will prompt user for an integer value that represents a dollar amount
Then the program outputs how many 1, 5, 10, and 20 dollar bills make up that ammount
UsageL ./ipay
Program prompts user for a float input to represent a subtotal dollar amount
The program then calculates a 7% tip and 22% tax.
Finally, it outputs the users subtotal, tip, tax, and total
Lab 6 works with braching evaluation, loops and arrays
I had to predict th evaluation of statements and outout of programs
I also had to write several programs for this lab:
leap.c, readlines.c, ult.c, urt.c, and rev-array.c
Usage: ./leap
The program then prompts the user for year number in the form of an integer
Then outputs YES if the year is a leap year, and NO if not
Usage: ./readlines
This program reads doubles separated by newlines from STDIN until EOF
After the input stops, the program outputs the minumum and maximum values and the mean
Usage: ./ult
This program prompts the user for an integer input
Then it prints out a isosceles triangle of the given length with * chars to the terminal justifed to the right
Usage: ./urt
This program prompts the user for an integer input
Then it prints out an ososceles triangle of the given length with * chars to the terminal justified to the left
Usage: ./rev-array
This program reads up to 100 doubles separated by newline from STDIN and loads them into an array
Then it creates a properly sized array that holds all the inputs in the reversed order then prints them to the screen
Lab 7 works with functions, pointers and strings in C
I had to write a few programs and functions:
func1.c, func2.c, pointerFuncs.c, stringFuncs.c, and circle.c
This program contains a function called arrAvg that takes in an array of doubles and a length
The function calculates the average value of the array and returns it
This program contains a function called int2string that takes an integer and a destination string
The number is expected to be no longer than 10 digits
This reads each digit in reverse order and converts them to strings
Then it loads the characters into a string of the number
This program contains 3 functions: binSearch, arrStats, and arrFind
binSearch performs binary search in an array for a target int
If found, returns index of target, if not, returns length of array
arrStats computes the statistics for an array of doubles
It stores the min, max, and mean values into destination pointers passed to it
arrFind searches an array of ints for a target integer
If found, returns the address of the target, if not, it returns NULL
This program contains a function called capitalize which capitalizes a string passed as a parameter
It edits each character in place in the string, converting lowercase alphabet characters to uppercase
Usage: ./circle name radius
This program must take in a name and a radius as a double as command line arguments
Then it computes the area of the circle with M_PI from <math.h>
It outputs a nice message with the name and the area
Usage: ./msg [input-filename]
Brief: msg.c reads codes (sequences of characters separated by newlines) from either STDIN or from a given file
Each code begins with a specific specifier character then must follow a precise sequence
This program prints out each code that it reads followed by OK if it is valid or FAIL if it
It uses functions that have built in Finite State Machines to determine whether or not a message is valid
Reading from input continues indefinitely until EOF is hit
