To continue: course development ideas/topics

Additional topics:

  • select command

  • revise coreutils section, expand the examples and explanations, make it clear that BASH is about getting those small utilities to work together

  • benchmark: C-code vs BASH, Python vs BASH, Perl vs BASH

Ideas for exercises

  • function to find all broken links

  • (homework?) Implement a profiler, that summarizes PS4/date output mentioned above

  • (homework?) Script that makes ‘pe1 pe2 … gpu32’ out of ‘pe[1-16],gpu11,gpu32’

In general, there could one script that one starts building from the first line up to a parallelization. Like backup script with rsync.

Git usage?
