Your program will report the following statistics directory do not exist) or "other" types of files in your current directory The number of directories in vour current directory The number of ordinary and readable files in your current directory . .The total number of bytes (size) contained in ordinary and readable files in your current directory Please note that no duplication of file counts is allowed (e.g., directories are counted as directories only, but not executable files even though they are executable, since they are not ordinary files). Also, only count data from the current directory and not sub-directories (i.e., files inside directories in the current directories SAMPLE OUTPUT (user input shown in bold): $ ls -1 total 76 -rwx1 mat0299 mat0299 7285 Aug 22 01:21 a.out -rw---1 mat0299 mat0299 83 Aug 25 08:40 file1 0 Aug 21 19:35 mat2 file -rw---- 1 mat0299 mat0299 84 Aug 21 19:31 mat file -rw--1 mat0299 mat0299 382 Aug 22 01:21 minorl.c -rwx---1 mat0299 mat0299 1464 Sep 8 11:27 minor3.sh -rwx---1 mat0299 mat0299 996 Sep 13 23:19 minor3B.sh -rw---1 mat0299 mat0299 373 Aug 21 19:23 myfile -rw--1 mat0299 mat0299 55 Aug 25 08:48 myfilel -rw--1 mat0299 mat0299 55 Aug 25 08:49 myfile2

Explanation / Answer

orecnt=0
neoth=0
dircnt=0
orcnt=0
totbytes=0

if [ $# -eq 0 ] ; then
list_of_files=*
else
list_of_files=$*

for fname in $list_of_files
   do

      orecnt=`expr $orecnt + 1`
     elif [ -d $fname ] ; then
       dircnt=`expr $dircnt + 1`
     elif [ -r $fname -a -w $fname ] ; then
       orcnt=`expr $orcnt + 1`
       fsize=`ls -l $fname | cut -d" " -f5`
       totbytes=`expr $totbytes + $fsize`
     else
       if [ $# -ne 0 ] ; then
          neoth=`expr $neoth + 1`
       fi
     fi
   done
   echo "ordinary, readable, executable files : $orecnt"
   echo "non-existent or other types of files : $neoth "
   echo "directory files                      : $dircnt "
   echo "ordinary and readable files          : $orcnt"
   echo "total bytes in ordinary files        : $totbytes"
