Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Issue in shell script Post 302964654 by Don Cragun on Sunday 17th of January 2016 05:36:35 PM

Please answer Scrutinzer's question: Is this homework?

If it isn't there are a few other questions that need to be answered:
  1. What shell are you using?
  2. Note that in your sample data, you have two items that have the same "highest quantity" sold and two other items that have the "highest number of sales transactions". How do you determine which should be given the "highest" label? (Or, more to the point, why don't you report all items with the same statistics when there is a tie?)
  3. You said you wanted your script to print three values. Are all of the files your script creates used for later processing? Or, are they just artifacts left over after your script completes?
  4. Could you please explain why you believe that the following code is needed in your script?:
Code:
	cut -f1 -d ',' log |grep -v item| sort -u >> 1
	for a in `cat 1`
	do
	touch $a
	done

mfontset_modify_entry

mfontset_modify_entry(3m17n)					 The m17n Library				      mfontset_modify_entry(3m17n)

NAME

       mfontset_modify_entry - Modify the contents of a fontset.

SYNOPSIS

       int mfontset_modify_entry (MFontset * fontset, MSymbol script, MSymbol language, MSymbol charset, MFont * spec, MSymbol layouter_name, int
       how)

DESCRIPTION

       Modify the contents of a fontset. The mfontset_modify_entry() function associates, in fontset fontset, a copy of font with the script /
       language pair or with charset.

       Each font in a fontset is associated with a particular script/language pair, with a particular charset, or with the symbol Mnil.  The fonts
       that are associated with the same item make a group.

       If script is not Mnil, it must be a symbol identifying a script. In this case, language is either a symbol identifying a language or Mnil,
       and font is associated with the script / language pair.

       If charset is not Mnil, it must be a symbol representing a charset object. In this case, font is associated with that charset.

       If both script and charset are not Mnil, two copies of font are created. Then one is associated with the script / language pair and the
       other with that charset.

       If both script and charset are Mnil, font is associated with Mnil.  This kind of fonts are called fallback fonts.

       The argument how specifies the priority of font.  If how is positive, font has the highest priority in the group of fonts that are
       associated with the same item. If how is negative, font has the lowest priority. If how is zero, font becomes the only available font for
       the associated item; all the other fonts are removed from the group.

       If layouter_name is not Mnil, it must be a symbol representing a mdbFLT (font layout table). In that case, if font is selected for drawing
       an M-text, that font layout table is used to generate a glyph code sequence from a character sequence.

RETURN VALUE

	   If the operation was successful, mfontset_modify_entry() returns 0. Otherwise it returns -1 and assigns an error code to the external
	   variable merror_code.

ERRORS

	   MERROR_SYMBOL
