Serebra Learning Corporation
The UNIX Shell Programming course is designed to give students an idea of what can be accomplished with shell scripts and how to write them. This course teaches the features of the shell such as I/O redirection, filename shorthand, looping constructs, variables, and signal handling. The course introduces the concept of shell programming, how and when to create shell programs, and how to run shell programs. It also provides a general discussion of shell metacharacters as well as quoting mechanisms. The course covers various methods of getting input for shell scripts. Four methods are presented: command substitution the read command, command line input and the trap command. Also presented is a summary of the types of interpretations the shell performs and a discussion about double quote marks. The flow control constructs discussed in this course include the case command, which is much like the C programming language's switch statement and Pascal's case statement, and the ""if"" constructs. This This course is designed for UNIX application users. It is also designed for programmers, systems alanlysts and engineers involved in the development of software for a UNIX system.
