Hello All,
I'm applying for a new job in telecommunications and have been asked to learn unix and pearl scripting. I've got a copy of knoppix Linux 03. I at this point only know how to list files, create directories, change permissions. I was instructed to learn how to create files, basic navigation and some basic scripting. I've bought unix for dummies and 1/3 of the way through it now. I don't see anything yet about creating files... which i'm assuming is only done in vi... I would like to accomplish the following:
create a directory called Nortel
create a file called plmn_list
have the file look like this
npa nxx trkgrp carrier
505 440 1 sprint
808 255 3 mci
602 256 2 att
425 444 1 sprint
then the script I would like to write would ask me to enter a npa nxx and based on what I type tell me which carrier it's going through via looking up the table/file I created called plmn_lst.
I would also like a script that asks which carrier I want to look up and it display or output to another file all the npa nxx that are listed for that carrier.
Can anyone help?
Thank you!!
