Description
This course will take you through the basics of Linux to begin with. This course is not intended towards pure beginners. One must have atleast some background in any programming language to know how coding works. Even knowing atleast how pseudo code works will help. Following are the chapters that will be taught in the whole course:
Basics to Linux
Writing and Debugging Scripts
Manipulating Bash Environment
Regexes or Regular Expressions
Stream Editor
Awk Programming
Conditions and Loops
Interactive Scripts
The whole course will be taught in a Virtual Machine and will be based on LinuxMint Cinnamon 17.1. One can however use any other Linux distro or even properly customized Debian. Scripts created in Linux will work on Mac as well provided proper support files have been added. One can even use Cygwin for windows instead of the VmWare, but is not recommended since it has created problems in the past when messing with Permissions. Having some basics in batch file programming will speed up the process to understand the shell commands. Few apps may need SuperUser access, thus one needs to be root when developing the said apps above.
