OK, so I am taking an intro Linux course and I am very new to linux. I have been having a tough time when it comes to shell scripting. I know the basic commands and how to create the file and also how to open vi to edit the file. But when it comes to starting the code I just dont know where or how to start. Ive contacted my professor and he suggested I get help through forums so here goes. Im not asking for anyone to do the HW for me I just was hoping someone could help me get a good start and explain it to me. Please, anything helps right now...
