  • Python Programming

    Python is a comparatively simple programming language, compared to c++. Although some of the benefits of c++ are abstracted away in python, they are replaced with an overall easier to learn language with many “intuitive” features. For this reason it is common and recommended by most professionals that people new to programming start with python.

  • Perl Programming

    Perl is an open-source, general-purpose interpreted programming language. Used often for CGI, Perl is also used for graphics programming, system administration, network programming, finance, bioinformatics, and other applications. The Perl languages borrow features from other programming languages including C, shell scripting (sh), AWK, and sed. They provide powerful text processing facilities without the arbitrary data-length limits of many contemporary UNIX command line tools, facilitating easy manipulation of text files.

#!bin/bash

# backs up all files in current directory modified within last 24 hours
# in a tarred and zipped file
# Replace 1 with how many day's you want to back up files

BACKUPFILE=backup-`date +"%m-%d-%Y"`
# Embeds date in backup filename

archive=${1:-$BACKUPFILE}
#If no filename specified default to backup-MM-DD-YYYY

find . -mtime -1 -type f -print0 xargs -0 tar rvf "$archive.tar"

#check bellow command
# tar cvf - $(find . -mtime -1 -type f -print) > $archive.tar
# It works But will fail to backup file names contain space
# if there is no files containing spaces it is good

# ALSO USE bellow code but it is slow and not portable
# find . -mtime -1 -type f -exec tar rvf "$archive.tar" {} \;
# use rvf option instead of cvf otherwise only one file will be archived

gzip $archive.tar && echo "Directory $pwd backed up in \"$archive.tar.gz\" File"

  1. There are many zip files on my computer. Inside theirs mp3 tracks,movies,softwares and etc... Once some zip files were crashed and I was very upset. But suddenly my friend called me up and recommended me - fix zip files. It resolved my issue for seconds and without payment as far as I remembered.
