The request seems ambiguous on several points, and I don't have any reason to think my crystal ball is any clearer than yours. Presumably, you know where this request came from and you have some insight into what they want. If that is true, your crystal is probably a lot clearer than mine.

At first glance I would say it is asking for the number of files in the 5 directories associated with the current minute, the previous minute, the minute before that, the minute before that, and the minute before that. Or maybe you should skip the current minute and just look at the 5 previous minutes (so file counts aren't artificially low due to the current minute being incomplete and files may still be added after you complete the count).

But:
  • Why say "count the number of files in the given directory" instead of "count the number of files in the given directories"?
  • Does "(events_storage/files_constant_patterns)" mean that instead of counting files in events/files_detected/2010/11/02/07/53 you should count files in events/files_detected/2010/11/02/07/53/events_storage/files_constant_patterns? Or in events/files_detected/2010/11/02/07/53/files_constant_patterns and in events/files_detected/2010/11/02/07/53/events_storage? Or does it mean that there are several types of files and you're only supposed to count files that are events_storage files or files_constant_patterns file? If so, what are events_storage files and files_constant_patterns files and how do you identify them?
  • Are the directory names based on local time or coordinated universal time? If it is local time and you are in a place where daylight savings time is observed, you will have one hour each year when files will be added to the directory during two different minutes. Are you supposed to adjust the limits during the second hour when files are being added to those directories? And, if so, what adjustments are you supposed to make?
  • Etc.
Good luck. Smilie

NAME
Locale::Codes::Script - standard codes for script identification SYNOPSIS
use Locale::Codes::Script; $script = code2script('phnx'); # 'Phoenician' $code = script2code('Phoenician'); # 'Phnx' $code = script2code('Phoenician', LOCALE_CODE_NUMERIC); # 115 @codes = all_script_codes(); @scripts = all_script_names(); DESCRIPTION
The "Locale::Codes::Script" module provides access to standards codes used for identifying scripts, such as those defined in ISO 15924. Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default ISO 15924 four-letter codes will be used. SUPPORTED CODE SETS
There are several different code sets you can use for identifying scripts. A code set may be specified using either a name, or a constant that is automatically exported by this module. For example, the two are equivalent: $script = code2script('phnx','alpha'); $script = code2script('phnx',LOCALE_SCRIPT_ALPHA); The codesets currently supported are: alpha, LOCALE_SCRIPT_ALPHA This is a set of four-letter (capitalized) codes from ISO 15924 such as 'Phnx' for Phoenician. It also includes additions to this set included in the IANA language registry. The Zxxx, Zyyy, and Zzzz codes are not used. This is the default code set. num, LOCALE_SCRIPT_NUMERIC This is a set of three-digit numeric codes from ISO 15924 such as 115 for Phoenician. ROUTINES
code2script ( CODE [,CODESET] ) script2code ( NAME [,CODESET] ) script_code2code ( CODE ,CODESET ,CODESET2 ) all_script_codes ( [CODESET] ) all_script_names ( [CODESET] ) Locale::Codes::Script::rename_script ( CODE ,NEW_NAME [,CODESET] ) Locale::Codes::Script::add_script ( CODE ,NAME [,CODESET] ) Locale::Codes::Script::delete_script ( CODE [,CODESET] ) Locale::Codes::Script::add_script_alias ( NAME ,NEW_NAME ) Locale::Codes::Script::delete_script_alias ( NAME ) Locale::Codes::Script::rename_script_code ( CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET] ) Locale::Codes::Script::add_script_code_alias ( CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET] ) Locale::Codes::Script::delete_script_code_alias ( CODE [,CODESET] ) These routines are all documented in the Locale::Codes::API man page.
