Hi Gurus,
I wrote a small KSH script, in that i am comparing two variables like this
curr_time = date +%h.%m
set_time=23.55
If ];
then
zip the file
fi
The above script is croned to run evey 5(3,8,.......,58) minutes, but it is zipping at 23.03 hours. My intention is at 23.58 .what... (4 Replies)
Hi !
How to reset a variable to 0 after a reset value, say 10 using bitwise
XOR.
For example,
int cnt=0;
if(cnt<10)
cnt++;
else
cnt = 0;
How can we achieve this by using XOR only.
thanks, (1 Reply)
Hi,
I am trying to reverse a string using the following program utilizing the Exclusive OR bit operation:
int main() {
char str = "Quraish";
char *p = str, temp;
char *q = str + strlen(str) - 1;
while ( p != q ) {
if (*p != *q) {
*p ^= *q; *q ^= *p; *p ^= *q;... (1 Reply)
Hi,
I'm trying to work on the script given below
#!/bin/ksh -x
pfile()
{
echo "$1"
}
touch smp19
echo "Hi" > smp19
result=$(pfile $smp19)
echo $result
As highlighted , when i pass $smp19 as parameter ,it does not display the output.However when i try giving "Hi" instead... (2 Replies)

I am aware of truth table for XOR between binary values .
Out of curious in would like to know how XOR works between 2 strings which contain alphabets .
For example A ^ B
How it works internally?
Please help me to understand this
Thanks (1 Reply)
The purpose of this article is revealing the unrevealed parts of the bitwise XOR.
As we aware, the truth table for the XOR operator is :
A B A^B
0 0 0
0 1 1
1 0 1
1 1 0
For example , 1^2 will be calculated as given below:
First the operands... (1 Reply)

shell-quote
SHELL-QUOTE(1p) User Contributed Perl Documentation SHELL-QUOTE(1p)NAME
shell-quote - quote arguments for safe use, unmodified in a shell command
SYNOPSIS
shell-quote [switch]... arg...
DESCRIPTION
shell-quote lets you pass arbitrary strings through the shell so that they won't be changed by the shell. This lets you process commands
or files with embedded white space or shell globbing characters safely. Here are a few examples.
EXAMPLES
ssh preserving args
When running a remote command with ssh, ssh doesn't preserve the separate arguments it receives. It just joins them with spaces and
passes them to "$SHELL -c". This doesn't work as intended:
ssh host touch 'hi there' # fails
It creates 2 files, hi and there. Instead, do this:
cmd=`shell-quote touch 'hi there'`
ssh host "$cmd"
This gives you just 1 file, hi there.
process find output
It's not ordinarily possible to process an arbitrary list of files output by find with a shell script. Anything you put in $IFS to
split up the output could legitimately be in a file's name. Here's how you can do it using shell-quote:
eval set -- `find -type f -print0 | xargs -0 shell-quote --`
debug shell scripts
shell-quote is better than echo for debugging shell scripts.
debug() {
[ -z "$debug" ] || shell-quote "debug:" "$@"
}
With echo you can't tell the difference between "debug 'foo bar'" and "debug foo bar", but with shell-quote you can.
save a command for later
shell-quote can be used to build up a shell command to run later. Say you want the user to be able to give you switches for a command
you're going to run. If you don't want the switches to be re-evaluated by the shell (which is usually a good idea, else there are
things the user can't pass through), you can do something like this:
user_switches=
while [ $# != 0 ]
do
case x$1 in
x--pass-through)
[ $# -gt 1 ] || die "need an argument for $1"
user_switches="$user_switches "`shell-quote -- "$2"`
shift;;
# process other switches
esac
shift
done
# later
eval "shell-quote some-command $user_switches my args"
OPTIONS --debug
Turn debugging on.
--help
Show the usage message and die.
--version
Show the version number and exit.
