In this assignment, I wrote five shell scripts that focus on different aspects of Linux administration and text processing. Script 1 reports system identity information such as the kernel version, distribution, uptime, and current user, along with my chosen FOSS software. Script 2 automatically creates a new group and adds the current user to it. This is a common task in system administration. Script 3 lists files with their permissions and sorts them by the permission string. This makes it easier to understand access patterns. Script 4 searches a given file for a word and prints the matching lines along with their line numbers. This is especially helpful for analyzing log files. Finally, Script 5 uses a loop to create ten numbered files and set execute permission. This demonstrates simple automation with Bash loops and chmod.
