"Date and time" calculation is not a simple puzzle and the solution depend on your "Unix" like OS.
School homework or a work related homework are the same and whoever ask you to solve this puzzle try to test your knowledge.
Anyway the title of the thread don't reflect the real problem.
Please read the rules, search the forum for previous solution and if you are unable to solve the puzzle , start a new thread and post a sample data.
Regards,
PS : We are not here to solve your problems, we can help however you should solve your problem by yourself.

Hi,
I'm looking for a way to get the date of creation for a file. Is it possible ? I know that these informations are in the i-node but I don't know how to access them (if the 'find' command can do it with option -ctime, I have reasons to believe in it).
Thanks for helping me ! (1 Reply)

Guys,
My log files stored in the date format format below(log_20080714072942):
TIMESTAMP=`date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S`
LOG=/log/log_${TIMESTAMP}.log
I'm looking for a shell script which deletes all files which is older than 3 months from today.

nice
NICE(1) BSD General Commands Manual NICE(1)
NAME
nice -- execute a utility at an altered scheduling priority
SYNOPSIS
nice [-n increment] utility [argument ...]
DESCRIPTION
The nice utility runs utility at an altered scheduling priority, by incrementing its ``nice'' value by the specified increment, or a default
value of 10. The lower the nice value of a process, the higher its scheduling priority.
The superuser may specify a negative increment in order to run a utility with a higher scheduling priority.
Some shells may provide a builtin nice command which is similar or identical to this utility. Consult the builtin(1) manual page.
ENVIRONMENT
The PATH environment variable is used to locate the requested utility if the name contains no '/' characters.
EXAMPLES
Execute utility 'date' at priority 5 assuming the priority of the shell is 0:
nice -n 5 date
Execute utility 'date' at priority -19 assuming the priority of the shell is 0 and you are the super-user:
nice -n 16 nice -n -35 date
DIAGNOSTICS
If utility is invoked, the exit status of nice is the exit status of utility.
An exit status of 126 indicates utility was found, but could not be executed. An exit status of 127 indicates utility could not be found.
SEE ALSO
builtin(1), csh(1), idprio(1), rtprio(1), getpriority(2), setpriority(2), renice(8)
COMPATIBILITY
The traditional -increment option has been deprecated but is still supported.
STANDARDS
The nice utility conforms to IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 (``POSIX.1'').
HISTORY
A nice utility appeared in Version 4 AT&T UNIX.
BSD
June 6, 1993 BSD
