Drilling down to the last subdirectory
Within a BASH environment, I need to search through a filesystem looking for the last subdirectory. Once the last subdirectory of the filesystem is found, I need to create another directory within it:

Basic example:
Code:
/u01/data1/project_1/proj_data1/score
/u01/data1/project_1/proj_data1/time/chart
/U01/data1/project_1/proj_data2/score
/U01/data1/project_1/proj_data3/depth/probe
/U01/data1/project_1/proj_data3/all
 
Once I am to the last directory I need to create:
- adminuser
 
So the outcome would be 
 
/u01/data1/project_1/proj_data1/score/adminuser
/u01/data1/project_1/proj_data1/time/chart/adminuser
/U01/data1/project_1/proj_data2/score/adminuser
/U01/data1/project_1/proj_data3/depth/probe/adminuser
/U01/data1/project_1/proj_data3/all/adminuser
 
HOME=”/u01/data1/project_1”

I attempted to perform searches for this scenario within this section, but couldn't find a resolution. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Many Thanks!
