The document contains multiple shell scripts for various tasks, including displaying the first fifty prime numbers, calculating the length of a string, extracting a substring, copying file contents, checking if a number is an Armstrong number, and determining the type of a command-line argument. Each script includes prompts for user input and appropriate logic to perform the specified operations. The scripts demonstrate basic shell scripting techniques and string manipulation in a Unix-like environment.

Write a shell script to display first fifty prime numbers.

count=0

num=2

echo "The first 50 prime numbers are:"

# Loop until 50 prime numbers are found

while [ $count -lt 50 ]; do

is_prime=1

for ((i = 2; i * i <= num; i++)); do

if ((num % i == 0)); then

is_prime=0

break

fi

done

if [ $is_prime -eq 1 ]; then

echo -n "$num "

count=$((count + 1))

fi

num=$((num + 1))

Write a shell script to perform the following string operations to find the length of a given string.

echo "Enter a string: "

read str

# Calculate the length of the string len=${#str}

# Display the length of the string echo "The

length of the string \"$str\" is: $len"

Write a shell script to perform to extract a sub-string from a given string


# Prompt the user to enter a string

echo "Enter a string: " read str

# Prompt the user to enter the starting position and length of the substring

echo "Enter the starting position " read start_pos echo "Enter the length

of the substring: "

read len

# Extract the substring using parameter expansion

substring=${input_string:start_pos:len} # Display

the extracted substring echo "The extracted

substring is: \"$substring\""

Write a shell script to copy the contents of one file into another

echo "Enter the source file name: " read source_file echo "Enter

the destination file name: " read destination_file

been copied to \"$destination_file\"."

# Read input from the user

echo "Enter a number: "

read num

temp=$num

sum=0

digits=${#num}

while [ $temp -gt 0 ]; do


digit=$((temp % 10))
sum=$((sum + digit**digits))
temp=$((temp / 10))
done
