[ -r $file ] && R="Read = yes" || R="Read = No"

echo "$file permissions"

echo "$W"
echo "$R"
echo "$X"
2. Write a shell script to count number of vowels in file ignoring the
case.
#!/bin/bash
clear
echo
read str
len=$(expr length $str)
count=0
while [ $len -gt 0 ]
do
ch=$(echo $str | cut -c $len)
case $ch in
[aeiouAEIOU] )
count=$(($count + 1))
 echo $ch
len=$(( $len - 1 ))
done
echo $count
3. Write a shell script to find out a given string is palindrome or not.
len=0
i=1
tag=0
echo -n “Enter a String: ”
read str
len=`echo $str | wc -c`
len=`expr $len – 1`
halfLen=`expr $len / 2`
while [ $i -le $halfLen ]
do
c1=`echo $str|cut -c$i`
c2=`echo $str|cut -c$len`
if [ $c1 != $c2 ] ; then
i=$halfLen
tag=1
fi
i=`expr $i + 1`
len=`expr $len – 1`
done
if [ $tag -eq 0 ]
then
echo “String is Palindrome”
else
echo “String is not Palindrome”
 4. Write a shell script which deletes all fines containing the word

#!/bin/bash
clear
read -p "Enter a number: " num
echo $num | rev

10.Create an array of 10 numbers. Write a shell program to find the .

largest of the ten numbers
i=1

echo "Enter Numbers"

while [ $i -le 10 ]
do
read num
if [ $i -eq 1 ]
then
max=$num
else
if [ $num -gt $max ]
then
max=$num
fi
fi
 i=$((i + 1))
done

echo $max
