Display the Filename and Size of a File
Hello, all!

Working in a Bourne shell. What command would list the filename and size of a file if the size of the file had to be bigger than $a and smaller than $b?

Output (if $a is 10 bytes and $b is 50 bytes):
test1.txt 15
test2.txt 30
test3.txt 50
Thanks,
Ann Smilie

Does this get you started?
Code:
$ ls -1s | awk '{if(($1>15)&&($1<50)) print $2","$1}'

Code:
find . -type f \( -size +10c -a -size -50c \( -print

No so sure that your 50 character file should be included because it's size is not less than 50 characters.
