Programming :: Find A Substring/member In A String/array Using Bash?
Oct 13, 2010This may be a basic bash array/string operation related question, but I couldn't find any direct answer. So here it goes:I have a lot of data sorted in various directories. All directories need same processing except for a special group of directories. I have a symbolic link of the script in discussion in each directory. I want the script to get the name of the current directory, check if that belongs to special group and do specific operations.So I get the name of the directory

General :: Bash: Calculating In Array And Storing Result In Array?
Dec 2, 2010I have an array called arrayini which stores numbers. I want to take log to the base 2 of each of the numbers in that array and put it in file called result. I've used the following code to do it.
Code:
size=${#arrayini[@]}
for ((i=0;i<size;i++))
do
echo "scale = 12; l(${arrayini[$i]})/l(2)" | bc -l
done >result
It works fine but its taking pretty long to calculate since I've got about 230,000 items in the array. So I decided to store the result into an array hoping that it'd be faster. I tried the following code. arrayresult is where I try and store the result. The code doesn't work because of the second last line.
Code:
unset arrayresult
size=${#arrayini[@]}
for ((i=0;i<size;i++))
do
arrayresult[$i]="scale = 12; l(${arrayini[$i]})/l(2)" | bc -l
done >FILE2
There is a syntax error clearly.

Programming :: Split A String By Every Nth Characters?
Jan 17, 2011splitting a string by every nth characters. I'm using Python 2.7.1 because I'm using older libraries, if that matters.
For example, if this is my input:
Quote:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Sed ac elit nibh, vitae venenatis ligula. Vestibulum a varius turpis.
Splitting it by every 10th character should produce this list:
Quote:
[ "Lorem ipsu", "m dolor si", "t amet, co", "nsectetur ", "adipiscing", " elit. Sed", " ac elit n", "ibh, vitae", " venenatis", " ligula. V", "estibulum ", "a varius t", "urpis." ]
Programming :: Split Fields In A Perl Array?
Dec 16, 2010I have an array called @logons. How can I step thru the array and split the fields? This is what I have so far, but doesnt work. I got the feeling I the split statement syntax is incorrect.
Code:
print @logons;
foreach my $logons(@logons){
($userid, $ip) = split(',',$logons);

Update: Appears the data in @logons has a column header from the mysql query which I used to populate it with. So that code which I was testing does indeed work.

General :: Bash Script - Two For Loops With Array?
May 1, 2011I am trying to execute a .c program of mine through bash... Problem is it takes two arguments (files) and am trying to use "for" loops to do it. I use the for loops to take the files (same number in both directories) and put them into arrays. I use the command "ls -1" in the "for loop" so they are sorted in such a way that they are in the same time and date order upon when the program is executed.
Here is the code:
Code:
for a in `ls -1 /analyses/data1/*_prt.txt`;
do echo $a;
done
[code]....
HOWEVER, $a in this case does not change with the loop. Thus, the program doesn't work. I then tried:
Code:
for a in `ls -1 /analyses/data1/*_prt.txt`;
for sfc in `ls -1 /analyses/data2/*_ht.txt`;
do
./plot_data $a $b >> log_file.log;
done
But that produces the error: syntax error near unexpected token `for'. As a "do" statement must come after the for loop call.
General :: Parse String In Bash Script?
Nov 8, 2009I have to create a bash script that takes an arbitrary length number from the command line, and add up each individual digit
Ex:

Is there a way in bash I can parse the input string for each character? I can't figure out a way to do this.

General :: Bash Scripting - Executes A Few Perl Scripts - Create A New Array And Take The Hostname
Apr 4, 2011I'm writing a bash script that executes a few perl scripts. One of the perl scripts that I need to execute requires two arguments with it. The arguments are stored in a txt file, each line contains a hostname and its corresponding IP address separated by a ":" (colon), the txt file looks like this below:
[Code]...
I'm not sure if it's the best way to accomplish this but here it goes. In the bash file, let's call it getHosts.sh, I create an array and assign each line of the file to an element in that array. I then think I need to create a new array where I take the hostname (which is before the ":") separate it from its IP address and place the IP address on a new line just below the hostname (this way I can reference to it like $hostNames[$x] would be the hostname, and $hostNames[$x+1] would be its IP address). So the new array would now look like this below:
