hi all,
i have been trying to get a script working that can take in more than one option using getopt. But for some reason, even when i type in a covered option, it skips directly to my error message of "no match." Any ideas of what might be wrong?
set - 'getopt frd*: $*'
for i in $*

I am just learning Tcl and there are few things about it that is perplexing me. I have a question about the switch statement.
Why are these two switch statements giving me different results?

I started writing a script to save the files from a camera I got the other day, which mounts in /Volumes , and I got into it and started building this menu. The only problem is that the switch case is coming up as a syntax error at the parenthesis after a case. Here is the code:

Hello
i have a requirement where in a file i will get string. The length could be from 1 to 20. if the string is less than 6 characters ( ex: ABCD) . i need to append 'X' on right hand side to make it 6 characters (ex: ABCDXX). if suppose i get the same string from the file as ABCDXX then i...

I need to implement a looping logic.
If then
Go to /path1/file*
Get all the filename starting with file* and store it in a array
count file number and store it in variable like run
Ex: I found 3 file with starting file* so my run = 3
means my loop should run three time
May be... (1 Reply)

rand_r
rand(3C) Standard C Library Functions rand(3C)NAME
rand, srand, rand_r - simple random-number generator
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdlib.h>
int rand(void);
void srand(unsigned int seed);
int rand_r(unsigned int *seed);
DESCRIPTION
The rand() function uses a multiplicative congruential random-number generator with period 2^32 that returns successive pseudo-random num-
bers in the range of 0 to RAND_MAX (defined in <stdlib.h>).
The srand() function uses the argument seed as a seed for a new sequence of pseudo-random numbers to be returned by subsequent calls to
rand(). If srand() is then called with the same seed value, the sequence of pseudo-random numbers will be repeated. If rand() is called
before any calls to srand() have been made, the same sequence will be generated as when srand() is first called with a seed value of 1.
The rand_r() function has the same functionality as rand() except that a pointer to a seed seed must be supplied by the caller. If
rand_r() is called with the same initial value for the object pointed to by seed and that object is not modified between successive calls
to rand_r(), the same sequence as that produced by calls to rand() will be generated.
The rand() and srand() functions provide per-process pseudo-random streams shared by all threads. The same effect can be achieved if all
threads call rand_r() with a pointer to the same seed object. The rand_r() function allows a thread to generate a private pseudo-random
stream by having the seed object be private to the thread.
USAGE
The spectral properties of rand() are limited. The drand48(3C) function provides a better, more elaborate random-number generator.
When compiling multithreaded applications, the _REENTRANT flag must be defined on the compile line. This flag should be used only in mul-
tithreaded applications.
