Description

This "Shell Scripting, AWK and SED for Linux/Unix Command Line" course provides good topics on shell scripting, AWK and SED to work efficiently on Linux/Unix system.

Why learn Shell Scripting

• To work efficiently on Linux/Unix System
• 
  
• Requires for Software Development/Maintenance
• Automation of tasks
• 
  
• Better management of system
• Efficient System Admin/Support activity
• 
  
• Command line interface for software application/product
• Well prepared for interview

Managing the system is very important activity for any organization business. Similarly all application require simple interface to use and big real time solutions require 24 hour support for lot of different tasks. This requires systematic way of doing the tasks to manage the systems and solutions efficiently. Big businesses require continuous improvement to manage these tasks efficiently. Linux and Unix system provides lot of commands to do all but at the same time it requires automate as much possible to manage the operational tasks efficiently.

Shell scripting, AWK and SED command provides wonderful way to use the Linux and Unix system to automate the complex tasks in programmatic way. The shell script helps in lot of tasks - managing system, timely operations, production support for big solutions, release and update of software projects, interfaces for application. It provides all in a simple manner and easy to understand for any developer/admin, so that future maintenance is also easy. The course covers following topics-

• Introduction to Shell Scripting
• Decisions
• Loops
• Command Line Parameters
• Functions
• Array
• SED
• AWK

This "Shell Scripting, AWK and SED on Linux/Unix" tutorial explains different features of Shell scripting, AWK, SED and shows simple implementation. The course develops the shell scripting understanding in steps by providing explanation and immediate implementation. The course has simple and useful examples which will be helpful in development/maintenance of shell scripting projects.

In this shell scripting course, I have used free Fedora on Oracle Virtual Box as environment but it can be done on any Linux and Unix system with shell and small changes as applicable for that shell.
