Course Objectives This is an undergraduate course in Computer Science on UNIX/Linux programming tools. This course gives a general view of the UNIX operating system, and provides a description of user level tools available to users and programmers.
Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • describe Linux internals and utilities.
  • use the “bash” shell and the basic commands in this shell.
  • write “bash” scripts.
  • list the administrative roles and responsibilities in Linux systems.
  • explain the concept of open source software development.
Course Description This is an undergraduate course in Computer Science on UNIX/Linux operating system. Although the course provides a broad view of the operating system, it mostly focuses on Bash programming and system administration. Students will get a handson approach on using and programming the operating system commands and scripts and will become very familiar with the UNIX environment. This course requires an understanding of modern operating systems and a working knowledge of programming basics. Students will be asked to work on a substantial Bash programming project and will need to develop good technical writing skills and programming skills.
