1) Swapping Without Temporary Variables


SOURCE CODE
echo -n "enter two numbers"
read a
read b
echo "Before swapping"
echo " A = $a B = $b"
a=`expr $a + $b`

# `expr $a + $b` = $(( $a + $b ))

b=`expr $a - $b`
a=`expr $a - $b`
echo "After swapping "
echo "A = $a B = $b"

OUTPUT:
"1swpwitouttemp.sh" [New] 11L, 185C written
[David@linuxstuserver ses2]$ sh 1swpwitouttemp.sh
enter two numbers10
20
Before swapping
A = 10 B = 20
After swapping
A = 20 B = 10
[David@linuxstuserver ses2]$

2) Swapping Using Temporary Variables


SOURCE CODE
echo -n "enter two numbers"
read a
read b
echo "Before swapping"
echo " A = $a B = $b"
c=$a
a=$b
b=$c
echo "After swapping "
echo "A = $a B = $b"

OUTPUT:
"2swpwittemp.sh" [New] 11L, 148C written
[David@linuxstuserver ses2]$ sh 2swpwittemp.sh
enter two numbers100
200
Before swapping
A = 100 B = 200
After swapping
A = 200 B = 100
[David@linuxstuserver ses2]$

3) Square and Cubes of A Number


SOURCE CODE:
echo -n "enter a number"
read num
sqr=`expr $num \* $num`
cube=`expr $sqr \* $num`
echo "the squre of $num is $sqr"
echo "the cube of $num is $cube"

OUTPUT:
"3sqrcub.sh" [New] 7L, 150C written
[David@linuxstuserver ses2]$ sh 3sqrcub.sh
enter a number10
the squre of 10 is 100
the cube of 10 is 1000
[David@linuxstuserver ses2]$

4) Even or Odd Number


SOURCE CODE:
clear
echo enter the number
read n
r=1
r=`expr $n % 2`
if [ $r -eq 0 ]

# -eq for digits or numbers

then
echo even
else
echo odd
fi
OUTPUT:
enter the number
5
odd
[David@linuxstuserver ses2]$

5) Given Input Is File or Directory


SOURCE CODE
clear
echo enter a filename
read fname
if test -f $fname
then
echo "$fname is a ordinary file"
elif test -d $fname
then
echo "$fname is a Directory"
else
echo "$fname is Invaliddd"
fi

OUTPUT:
enter a filename
aaa
aaa is a ordinary file
[David@localhost ses2]$

6) Type of Character Entered


SOURCE CODE:
clear
echo enter a character from the keyboard
read ch
case $ch in
[a-z]) echo its a alphabet
;;
[0-9]) echo its a number
;;
?) echo it is a special character
;;
*) echo u entered more
;;
esac
OUTPUT:
enter a character from the keyboard
a
its a alphabet
[David@linuxstuserver ses2]$

7) Usage of Case Statement


SOURCE CODE:
clear
echo -e "Files and Directories are @ present \n"
ls
echo -e "\n\n"
echo -e "MENU\n\n1.display a file"
echo 2.copy a file
echo 3.create a directory
echo enter ur choice
read ch
case $ch in
1) echo enter filename to display the content of......
read fname
cat $fname
;;
2) echo enter two files for copying from one to another
read file1 file2
cp $file1 $file2
echo -e "\nAfter copying The Directory is ....\n"
ls
;;
3) echo enter the directory
read dname
mkdir $dname
echo -e "\nAfter Creating The current Directory is ....\n"
ls
;;
*) echo invalid option
esac

OUTPUT:
Files and Directories are @ present
aaa b bbb case.sh jj
MENU
1.display a file
2.copy a file
3.create a directory
enter ur choice
1
enter filename to display the content of......
aaa
clear
echo -e "Files and Directories are @ present \n"
ls
echo -e "\n\n"
echo -e "MENU\n\n1.display a file"
echo 2.copy a file
echo 3.create a directory
echo enter ur choice
read ch
case $ch in
1) echo enter filename
read fname
cat $fname
ls
;;
2) echo enter two files for copying from one to another
read file1 file2
cp $file1 $file2
ls

;;
3) echo enter the directory
read dname
mkdir $dname
ls
;;
*) echo invalid option
esac

8) Comparison of Two Strings


SOURCE CODE
clear
echo "enter a string1"
read first
echo "enter a string2"
read second
if [ $first = $second ]

# this = for other than digits equals

then
echo equal
else
echo unequal
fi

OUTPUT:
enter a string1
abcxyz
enter a string2
abcxyz
equal

9) Comparison Of Two Strings From Command Lines

SOURCE CODE:
if [ $1 = $2 ]
then
echo "Strings are equal ...."
else
echo "Strings are not equal....."
fi
OUTPUT
[David@linuxstuserver ses2]$ sh 9cmp2strcmdline.sh vasavi vasavi
Strings are equal ....
[David@linuxstuserver ses2]$ sh 9cmp2strcmdline.sh vasavi ivasav
Strings are not equal.....
[David@linuxstuserver ses2]$

10) Finding the Length of A Given String


SOURCE CODE:
echo -n "Enter the string "
read str
len=`echo $str | wc -c`
len=`expr $len - 1`
echo " the length of the string is $len"

OUTPUT:
9strlength.sh" [New] 6L, 123C written
David@linuxstuserver ses2]$ sh 9strlength.sh
Enter the string vasavi college
the length of the string is 14
