Write a bash shell script that will display the total number of files, within a given di- rectory, whose names start with b and consist of exactly 5 characters. the name of the directory is given as command line argument at the shell prompt.
a sample run:
> testscript /bin/
4
> testscript /usr/include/
1
there are 4 matches in the /bin directory and 1 in the /usr/include directory.

Your boss wants you to configure his laptop so that he can access the company network when he is on the road. you suggest a vpn connection to him. he is very concerned about security and asks you how secure vpn is. what do you tell him?

1. the program must provide following functions to extract some statistics. note that the data_list parameter specified in these functions may be the same for all functions or different for different functions—that is your choice. a skeleton file is provided on mirmir. a) open_file()prompts the user to enter a year number for the data file. the program will check whether the year is between 1990 and 2015 (both inclusive). if year number is valid, the program will try to open data file with file name ‘year. txt’, where is the year. appropriate error message should be shown if the data file cannot be opened or if the year number is invalid. this function will loop until it receives proper input and successfully opens the file. it returns a file pointer and year. i. hint: use string concatenation to construct the file name b) read_file(fp)has one parameter, a file pointer read. this function returns a list of your choosing containing data you need for other parts of this project. c) find_average(data_list) takes a list of data (of some organization of your choosing) and returns the average salary. the function does not print anything. hints: i. this is not the average of the last column of data. it is not mathematically valid to find an average by finding the average of averages—for example, in this case there are many more in the lowest category than in the highest category. ii. how many wage earners are considered in finding the average (denominator)

Write a function called checkfactor that takes two arrays of positive numbers, firstnumberrow and secondnumberrow. checkfactor checks if the first entry in firstnumberrow is divisible by the first entry in secondnumberrow, and performs the same operation on the next array elements until all entries have been checked. all the numbers are positive and the number of entries in the arrays are the same. the function should return the identified divisible numbers in two row arrays named firstdivisible and seconddivisible. restrictions: branches or loops should not be used. the code must use the internal mod and logical functions. hint: the mod function should be used to determine if two numbers are divisible. ex: for num1 and num2 if mod(num1,num2) is 0, then the two numbers are divisible. this is matlab
