if [ $# -ne 1 ]
then
echo "No argument"
exit
fi
if [ ! -e $1 ]
then
echo "The given directory does not exist"
exit
fi
echo "The file with maximum length $1 dir is"
ls -lR $1|tr -s " "|cut -d " " -f 5,10|sort -n|tail -n 1

echo "No arguments"
elif [ ! -e $1 -o ! -e $2 ]
then
echo "FIle does not exist"
else
p1=`ls -l $1|cut -c2-10`
p2=`ls -l $2|cut -c2-10`
if [ $p1 == $p2 ]
then
echo "File permissions are equal & is $p1"
else
echo "File permissions are not equal"
echo "1st file $p1"

Write a non-recursive shell script which accepts any number of arguments and prints them in the reverse order (For example, if the script is named args, then executing args A B C should produce C B A on the standard output).

if [ $# -eq 0 ]

echo "No argument"
exit
fi
for i in $*
do
y=$i" "$y
done
echo $y
