  • C++ Input/Output: Streams 4
    C++ Input/Output: Streams 4. Input/Output 1 The basic data type for I/O in C++ is the stream. C++ incorporates a complex hierarchy of stream types. The most basic stream types are the standard input/output streams: istream cin built-in input stream variable; by default hooked to keyboard ostream cout built-in output stream variable; by default hooked to console header file: <iostream> C++ also supports all the input/output mechanisms that the C language included. However, C++ streams provide all the input/output capabilities of C, with substantial improvements. We will exclusively use streams for input and output of data. Computer Science Dept Va Tech August, 2001 Intro Programming in C++ ©1995-2001 Barnette ND & McQuain WD C++ Streams are Objects 4. Input/Output 2 The input and output streams, cin and cout are actually C++ objects. Briefly: class: a C++ construct that allows a collection of variables, constants, and functions to be grouped together logically under a single name object: a variable of a type that is a class (also often called an instance of the class) For example, istream is actually a type name for a class. cin is the name of a variable of type istream. So, we would say that cin is an instance or an object of the class istream. An instance of a class will usually have a number of associated functions (called member functions) that you can use to perform operations on that object or to obtain information about it. The following slides will present a few of the basic stream member functions, and show how to go about using member functions.

How many words are in this document? Good for bragging rights Word, Character, Line, and Byte count with wc wc -l : count the number of lines wc -w : count the number of words wc -m : count the number of characters wc -c : count the number of bytes Instructor: Bruno Abrahao CS2043 - Unix Tools & Scripting Sorting sort Sorts the lines of a text file alphabetically. sort -ru file sorts the file in reverse order and deletes duplicate lines. sort -n -k 2 -t : file sorts the file numerically by using the second column, separated by a colon Example Consider a file (numbers.txt) with the numbers 1, 5, 8, 11, 62 each on a separate line, then: $ sort numbers.txt $ sort numbers.txt -n 1 1 11 5 5 8 62 11 8 62 Instructor: Bruno Abrahao CS2043 - Unix Tools & Scripting uniq uniq uniq file - Discards all but one of successive identical lines uniq -c file - Prints the number of successive identical lines next to each line Instructor: Bruno Abrahao CS2043 - Unix Tools & Scripting Character manipulation!

  • Shells and Shell Programming
    Shells & Shell Programming (Part A) Software Tools EECS2031 Winter 2018 Manos Papagelis Thanks to Karen Reid and Alan J Rosenthal for material in these slides SHELLS 2 What is a Shell • A shell is a command line interpreter that is the interface between the user and the OS. • The shell: – analyzes each command – determines what actions are to be performed – performs the actions • Example: wc –l file1 > file2 3 Which shell? • sh – Bourne shell – Most common, other shells are a superset – Good for programming • csh or tcsh – command-line default on EECS labs – C-like syntax – Best for interactive use. • bash – default on Linux (Bourne again shell) – Based on sh, with some csh features. • korn – written by David Korn – Based on sh – Some claim best for programming. – Commercial product. 4 bash versus sh • On EECS labs, when you run sh, you are actually running bash. • bash is a superset of sh. • For EECS2031, you will be learning only the features of the language that belong to sh. 5 Changing your shell • I recommend changing your working shell on EECS to bash – It will make it easier to test your shell programs. – You will only need to learn one set of syntax. • What to do: – echo $SHELL (to check your current shell) – chsh <userid> bash – Logout and log back in. – .profile is executed every time you log in, so put your environment variables there 6 Standard Streams • Preconnected input and output channels between a computer program and its environment. There are 3 I/O connections: – standard input (stdin) – standard output (stdout) – standard

(Bash) Firstly, let's consider why Bash? Bash stands for 'Bourne Again Shell' (a pun) Developed in the 80's but a very popular shell today. Default in many Unix systems, Macs Unix is the internet! (Running ML Models, Data Pipelines) AWS, Google, Microso all have CLI's to their products INTRODUCTION TO BASH SCRIPTING Why Bash scripting? (scripting!) So why Bash scripting? Ease of execution of shell commands (no need to copy-paste every time!) Powerful programming constructs INTRODUCTION TO BASH SCRIPTING Expected knowledge You are expected to have some basic knowledge for this course. Understand what the command-line (terminal, shell) is Have used basic commands such as cat , grep , sed etc. If you are rusty, don't worry - we will revise this now! INTRODUCTION TO BASH SCRIPTING Shell commands refresher Some important shell commands: (e)grep lters input based on regex paern matching cat concatenates le contents line-by-line tail \ head give only the last -n (a ag) lines wc does a word or line count (with ags -w -l ) sed does paern-matched string replacement INTRODUCTION TO BASH SCRIPTING A reminder of REGEX 'Regex' or regular expressions are a vital skill for Bash scripting.
