The Editor: Insert Mode Esc

This summary provides the key information from the document in 3 sentences: The document discusses the vi editor and its modes - insert mode adds text while command mode allows navigation and editing. It also covers basic UNIX commands like ls, grep, mkdir and vi for file manipulation and editing. Pseudocode concepts are defined such as variables, data types, control structures like if/else and for/while loops, and functions.

Insert mode

The

vi editor

esc
All keys except esc insert text.

Move mode c w cc / search text rtn i o ? search text rtn a R I C n ,N Re-search O n cc . Repeat previous command u Undo n y y Copy n lines to buffer x X dw p , P Paste below or above D dd J Join lines w W b Ctrl-f Ctrl-g show line number B e E Ctrl-b Z Z same as : w q rtn : Go to command mode nG find Command mode esc cancels rtn

modify

n,md ==delete lines n-m n,ms/<target text>/<new text>/g


== substitute text (g=all occurences) on lines from n to m

move

w file, w! , q , q!, wq, write file, quit (!=force)

UNIX basics
To get a command line interface on Irix, use "Open UNIX Shell" from the Toolbox. Commands you should know: ls == list files ( use ls -l for long format) grep string file == find a character string within a file. mkdir directory == make a new directory (use rmdir to remove it) cd == change your working directory (use cd .. to go up one directory, cd ../.. to go up two directories.) pwd == print working directory more file == view a file page by page vi file == edit a file. (see vi page)

UNIX basics
rm file == delete file mv file directory/newname == rename (move) file Redirecting input/output: sort < inputfile > outputfile Running a command in the background: sort < inputfile > outputfile & (or use ctrl-z) Piping one command to another: sort inputfile | more Setting the X-windows display: on the local machine: xhost + on the remote machine: setenv DISPLAY localmachine.rpi.edu Getting more information on UNIX commands: man command == read the manual

UNIX basics: telnet, ssh and ftp


To connect the terminal window to a remote machine: Without encryptation: telnet IP_address, then login using username and
password

With encryptation: ssh username@IP_address


then type password

IP addresses have the form A.B.C.D where A, B, C and D are either integers (0-255) or names (such as bioinf45.bio.rpi.edu). To transfer files between machines: ftp IP_address , then login using username and password FTP commands get file, put file == download or upload mput, mget == download, upload multiple files cd directory == change directory remotely ls == list files remotely bin, asc == set file transfer to binary, ascii bye == disconnect

Pseudocode
constant variable statement assignment
real (1.23), integer (4), character("4"), or Boolean a name, assignable to a constant. {<assignment>|<conditional statement>|<loop>} [<statement>] a <-- b or a = b, where a is a variable and b is a variable. constant, or a formula using binary and unitary operators. [NOT] a <boolean operator> b [{AND | OR} <condition> Evaluates to true (1) or false (0). if (<boolean>) then <statement> [else <statement>] endif {<for loop>|<while loop>} for ( i from a to b ) do <statement> enddo while (<condition>) do <statement> enddo a[i] A numbered set of variables. a[i,j] Range in i: a[i..k,j] = (a[i,j].a[i+1,j],...,a[k,j]) + - * / ^ % (add,subtract,multiply,divide,modulus) sqrt(), log(), exp(), sin(), cos(), tan(), len(),etc. (builtin functions) > < == (greater than, less than, equal to) read file <variables> , assigns variables from file. write file <variables>, output to file. (Use * for standard input/output) return x When used in a function, sets the returned value of the function to x. a <-- F(x,y) { <statements> return x }

A Pseudocode program for calculating the distance between two points, a and b:

a[1..3] = (1.1, 2.2, 3.3) b[1..3] = (4.4, 5.5, 6.6) sum = 0 for i from 1 to 3 do x <-- (a[i] - b[i])^2 sum <-- sum + x enddo x = sqrt(sum) write *, "The distance is ", x

A Pseudocode program using a function.Converts a character array (string) to an integer array: // 1="A", 2="C",3="G",4="T" base[1..4] = ("A","C","G","T") read *, sequence for i from 1 to len(sequence) do s[i] = getbase(sequence[i]) enddo write *, "The sequence is ", sequence[1..len(sequence)] write *, "The integer sequence is ", s[1..len(sequence)] getbase(a) { i <-- 1 while (NOT base[i] == a) do i <-- i + 1 if (i > 4) return 0 enddo return i }
