Compulsory exercise
9:30 11:00
Prerequisites
Must: Install & setup Linux OS (Ubuntu) on your personal computer.
Please read the detail guideline attached.

Opt1: Install Linux with VirtualBox. Opt2: Install WSL on Window: lightweight, fast
(May take you 30 mins or even hours) startup but lacking full Linux desktop experience.
Terminal &
Command Line
To launch Linux terminal:
- Ctrl + Alt + T
- Click Ativities->Type “Terminal”
Update/Install
Your very first command!

With Ubuntu, to update/upgrade all the installed

packages:
sudo apt-get update/upgrade (root)
To install a new package:
sudo apt-get install <package-name>

Note: Please update before installing any new package!

Try to install “nano”, “”vim”, “make”, “gcc”

 Basic
Command
File Permission
To show the permission files/folders:
ls -l
File Permission
Change permission of group(g), other
To change the permission: (o) and all users (a):
chmod <access_mode> file(s)/folders - chmod g+rw filename - add read and write
The <access_mode> can be one of these formats: permission for group.
Symbolic: [uago] [+-=][rwx] - chmod a=r filename - give only read
permission for all users.
Octal: [0-7][0-7][0-7]
- chmod o-w filename - remove write
permission for others.

The <access_mode> in symbolic:

Change permission of owner(u):
- chmod +rx filename: add read & execute permission for owner
- chmod u+rx filename: add read & execute permission for owner
Example:
- chmod -w filename: remove write permission for owner [Symbolic] chmod 777 filename
- chmod =r filename: give only read permission for owner [Octal] chmod a=rwx filename
Exercise 1
1. Create a New Directory with <Your Student-ID>.
2. In Folder <Your Student-ID>:
a. Create a New File named "nano_guide.txt".
b. Edit File "nano_guide.txt" with the given paragraph*.
c. View the Content of "nano_guide.txt".
d. Copy "nano_guide.txt" to a New File "nano_tips.txt".
3. Move "nano_tips.txt" to your home directory.
4. List the Content of <Student-ID> Directory.
5. Change the Permission of "nano_guide.txt" to Read Only.
6. Change the Permission of All Files in <Student-ID> Directory to ReadnWrite for Owner.
7. List All Commands That Have Been Run from That Terminal Session and Save to
“<StudentID>-history.txt".
Exercise 1
Edit File "nano_guide.txt" with the given paragraph:

//Your student ID
To open a file in Nano, type nano filename in the terminal.
Use arrow keys to navigate through the text.
To start typing or editing, simply begin typing.
Press Ctrl + O to save the file.
Press Ctrl + X to exit Nano.
If prompted to save changes, press Y for yes or N for no.
To search for a word, press Ctrl + W, type the word, and press Enter.
Press Ctrl + G for help and see other available commands.
Nano displays common actions at the bottom for easy reference.

Linux system = Kernel + GNU system utilities & Shell is the interface helping user
libraries + other management scripts + installation communicate with the kernel.
scripts.
Bash
BASH is a default command line shell interpreter on many Linux OS.
A bash script file is a text file with extension .sh
To find where the bash interpreter locates, we type:
$ which bash
To declare the interpreter, we put “#!/bin/bash” in the first line of the script
file.

C Program Compilation Process
Makefile
Makefiles are used to
automate, control the
compilation process.

A Makefile consists of a
set of rules, includes:
targets: prerequisites
command
command
Makefile
Read more in the Lab file.
Submit your file
<Makefile>, <calc> for
exercise 5.3.

When running “$ make blah”, it will run as following steps:

Make is given blah as the target, so it first searches for this target
blah requires blah.o, so make searches for the blah.o target
blah.o requires blah.c, so make searches for the blah.c target
blah.c has no dependencies, so the echo command is run
The gcc command is then run, because all of the blah.o dependencies are finished
The top gcc command is run, because all the blah dependencies are finished
That's it: blah is a compiled c program
