== Linux Command Line ==
 
ls list files and directories
 
ls -a list all files and directories
 
mkdir make a directory
 
cd directory change to named directory
 
cd change to home-directory
 
cd ~ change to home-directory
 
cd .. change to parent directory
 
pwd display the path of the current directory
 
 
 
'''cp (copy)'''
 
cp file1 file2 is the command which makes a copy of file1 in the current working directory and calls it file2
 
What we are going to do now, is to take a file stored in an open access area of the file system, and use the cp command to copy it to your unixstuff directory.
 
First, cd to your unixstuff directory.
 
% '''cd ~/unixstuff'''
 
Then at the UNIX prompt, type,
 
% '''cp /vol/examples/tutorial/science.txt''' .
 
Note: Don't forget the dot . at the end. Remember, in UNIX, the dot means the current directory.
 
The above command means copy the file science.txt to the current directory, keeping the name the same.
 
(Note: The directory /vol/examples/tutorial/ is an area to which everyone in the school has read and copy access. If you are from outside the University, you can grab a copy of the file here. Use 'File/Save As..' from the menu bar to save it into your unixstuff directory.)
 
Exercise 2a
 
Create a backup of your science.txt file by copying it to a file called science.bak
 
'''2.2 Moving files'''
 
'''mv (move)'''
 
'''mv file1 file2 moves (or renames) file1 to file2'''
 
To move a file from one place to another, use the mv command. This has the effect of moving rather than copying the file, so you end up with only one file rather than two.
 
It can also be used to rename a file, by moving the file to the same directory, but giving it a different name.
 
We are now going to move the file science.bak to your backup directory.
 
First, change directories to your unixstuff directory (can you remember how?). Then, inside the unixstuff directory, type
 
% mv science.bak backups/.
 
Type ls and ls backups to see if it has worked.
 
 
'''2.3 Removing files and directories'''
 
rm (remove), rmdir (remove directory)
 
To delete (remove) a file, use the rm command. As an example, we are going to create a copy of the science.txt file then delete it.
 
Inside your unixstuff directory, type
 
% cp science.txt tempfile.txt
% ls
% rm tempfile.txt
% ls
 
You can use the rmdir command to remove a directory (make sure it is empty first). Try to remove the backups directory. You will not be able to since UNIX will not let you remove a non-empty directory.
 
Exercise 2b
 
Create a directory called tempstuff using mkdir , then remove it using the rmdir command.
 
'''2.4 Displaying the contents of a file on the screen'''
 
clear (clear screen)
 
Before you start the next section, you may like to clear the terminal window of the previous commands so the output of the following commands can be clearly understood.
 
At the prompt, type
 
% clear
 
This will clear all text and leave you with the % prompt at the top of the window.

'''cat (concatenate)'''
Primary Software:
'''R:''' https://www.r-project.org/


The command cat can be used to display the contents of a file on the screen. Type:
== Python I703 ==


% cat science.txt


As you can see, the file is longer than than the size of the window, so it scrolls past making it unreadable.
    Get an idea what to do by next week. Ideas:
    '''1. Pyglet,pygame or kivy for a game or simulation:'''
    1.1. MP beat em' up
    1.2. Survival space sim, use webcam for dynamic view
    1.3. Planet rotation simulation
    '''Check out '''

    '''2. WebApp'''
    2.1. Budget Management with a GUI


'''less'''
    '''Notes:'''  
 
    * Set up RPi web-server
The command less writes the contents of a file onto the screen a page at a time. Type
    * Use '''XMind''' to map the idea first
 
    * Run basic website and deploy webapp to it.  
% less science.txt
    * Check out RPi components and sensors.  
 
    * Buy a breadboard.
Press the [space-bar] if you want to see another page, and type [q] if you want to quit reading. As you can see, less is used in preference to cat for long files.
    * Check out Notepad++

'''node.js'''
'''ngix'''
'''nchan'''


'''head'''
'''Useful links:'''
  http://enos.itcollege.ee/phpmyadmin/
  http://enos.itcollege.ee/~ksaareme


The head command writes the first ten lines of a file to the screen.
'''W3C validation:''' https://validator.w3.org/


First clear the screen then type
== Node.js ==


% head science.txt
Stuff about node.js.


Then type
== Operating Systems ==


% head -5 science.txt
Command line:


What difference did the -5 do to the head command?
    '''Options modify the behavior of commands:'''
        ls -a lists all contents of a directory, including hidden files and directories
        ls -l lists all contents in long format
        ls -t orders files and directories by the time they were last modified
        Multiple options can be used together, like ls -alt
    '''From the command line, you can also copy, move, and remove files and directories:'''
        cp copies files
        mv moves and renames files
        rm removes files
        rm -r removes directories
    '''Wildcards are useful for selecting groups of files and directories'''




'''tail'''


The tail command writes the last ten lines of a file to the screen.
    '''Redirection reroutes standard input, standard output, and standard error.'''


Clear the screen and type
    '''The common redirection commands are:'''
        > redirects standard output of a command to a file, overwriting previous content.
        >> redirects standard output of a command to a file, appending new content to old content.
        < redirects standard input to a command.
        | redirects standard output of a command to another command.


% tail science.txt
    '''A number of other commands are powerful when combined with redirection commands:'''
 
         sort: sorts lines of text alphabetically.
Q. How can you view the last 15 lines of the file?
         uniq: filters duplicate, adjacent lines of text.
 
         grep: searches for a text pattern and outputs it.
        sed : searches for a text pattern, modifies it, and outputs it.
 
'''2.5 Searching the contents of a file'''
 
Simple searching using less
 
Using less, you can search though a text file for a keyword (pattern). For example, to search through science.txt for the word 'science', type
 
% less science.txt
 
then, still in less, type a forward slash [/] followed by the word to search
 
/science
 
As you can see, less finds and highlights the keyword. Type [n] to search for the next occurrence of the word.
 
 
grep (don't ask why it is called grep)
 
grep is one of many standard UNIX utilities. It searches files for specified words or patterns. First clear the screen, then type
 
% grep science science.txt
 
As you can see, grep has printed out each line containg the word science.
 
Or has it ????
 
Try typing
 
% grep Science science.txt
 
The grep command is case sensitive; it distinguishes between Science and science.
 
To ignore upper/lower case distinctions, use the -i option, i.e. type
 
% grep -i science science.txt
 
To search for a phrase or pattern, you must enclose it in single quotes (the apostrophe symbol). For example to search for spinning top, type
 
% grep -i 'spinning top' science.txt
 
Some of the other options of grep are:
 
-v display those lines that do NOT match
-n precede each matching line with the line number
-c print only the total count of matched lines
Try some of them and see the different results. Don't forget, you can use more than one option at a time. For example, the number of lines without the words science or Science is
 
% grep -ivc science science.txt
 
 
'''wc (word count)'''
 
A handy little utility is the wc command, short for word count. To do a word count on science.txt, type
 
% wc -w science.txt
 
'''To find out how many lines the file has, type'''
 
% wc -l science.txt

== Instruction sets ==
 
nstruction sets may be categorized by the maximum number of operands explicitly specified in instructions.
 
(In the examples that follow, a, b, and c are (direct or calculated) addresses referring to memory cells, while reg1 and so on refer to machine registers.)
 
C = A+B
 
  * 0-operand (zero-address machines), so called stack machines: All arithmetic operations take place using the top one or two positions on
    the stack: push a, push b, add, pop c.
    C = A+B needs four instructions. For stack machines, the terms "0-operand" and "zero-address" apply to arithmetic instructions,
    but not to all instructions, as 1-operand push and pop instructions are used to access memory.
 
    *1-operand (one-address machines), so called accumulator machines, include early computers and many small microcontrollers: most instructions
    specify a single right operand (that is, constant, a register, or a memory location), with the implicit accumulator as the left operand
    (and the destination if there is one): load a, add b, store c.
    C = A+B needs three instructions.
 
    *2-operand — many CISC and RISC machines fall under this category:
         CISC — move A to C; then add B to C.
            C = A+B needs two instructions. This effectively 'stores' the result without an explicit store instruction.
            CISC — Often machines are limited to one memory operand per instruction: load a,reg1; add b,reg1; store reg1,c;
            This requires a load/store pair for any memory movement regardless of whether the add result is an augmentation
            stored to a different place, as in C = A+B, or the same memory location: A = A+B.
            C = A+B needs three instructions.
            RISC — Requiring explicit memory loads, the instructions would be: load a,reg1; load b,reg2; add reg1,reg2; store reg2,c.
            C = A+B needs four instructions.
 
    *3-operand, allowing better reuse of data:[5]
         CISC — It becomes either a single instruction: add a,b,c
            C = A+B needs one instruction.
            or more typically: move a,reg1; add reg1,b,c as most machines are limited to two memory operands.
                C = A+B needs two instructions.
        RISC — arithmetic instructions use registers only, so explicit 2-operand load/store instructions are needed:
        load a,reg1; load b,reg2; add reg1+reg2->reg3; store reg3,c;
            C = A+B needs four instructions.
            Unlike 2-operand or 1-operand, this leaves all three values a, b, and c in registers available for further reuse.[5]

== Compression ==
 
Data compression ratio is defined as the ratio between the uncompressed size and compressed size:
 
    Compression Ratio = Uncompressed Size / Compressed Size
 
Thus a representation that compresses a 10MB file to 2MB has a compression ratio of 10/2 = 5, often notated as an explicit ratio, 5:1 (read "five" to "one"), or as an implicit ratio, 5/1. Note that this formulation applies equally for compression, where the uncompressed size is that of the original; and for decompression, where the uncompressed size is that of the reproduction.
 
Sometimes the space savings is given instead, which is defined as the reduction in size relative to the uncompressed size:
 
  Space Savings = 1 - Compressed Size / Uncompressed Size
Thus a representation that compresses a 10MB file to 2MB would yield a space savings of 1 - 2/10 = 0.8, often notated as a percentage, 80%.
 
For signals of indefinite size, such as streaming audio and video, the compression ratio is defined in terms of uncompressed and compressed data rates instead of data sizes:
 
    Compression Ratio = Uncompressed Data Rate/ Compressed Data Rate
 
and instead of space savings, one speaks of data-rate savings, which is defined as the data-rate reduction relative to the uncompressed data rate:
 
  Data Rate Savings = 1 - Compressed Data Rate / Uncompressed Data Rate
For example, uncompressed songs in CD format have a data rate of 16 bits/channel x 2 channels x 44.1 kHz ≅ 1.4 Mbit/s, whereas AAC files on an iPod are typically compressed to 128 kbit/s, yielding a compression ratio of 10.9, for a data-rate savings of 0.91, or 91%.
 
When the uncompressed data rate is known, the compression ratio can be inferred from the compressed data rate.
 
== Bits and Bytes ==

Notes:The value of K (Kilo) during calculations can take two values 1024 or 1000, depends on which type of calculation you want to perform.
Consider using K = 1024 when you are considering storage capacity whether in hard disk, DVDs, flash drives or other devices and storage media.
K = 1000 should be used when you are thinking of throughput, ie the speed at which information is transferred.
 
Example: If your computer has 1 KB of disk space is says that he has 1024 B of space, now the throughput of your network card is 1 KB/s then
it is said that it transmits data to 1000 B/s.

== Git ==
 
    The object database contains four types of objects:
 
    A blob (binary large object) is the content of a file. Blobs have no file name, time stamps, or other metadata.
    A tree object is the equivalent of a directory. It contains a list of file names, each with some type bits and the name of a blob
    or tree object that is that file, symbolic link, or directory's contents. This object describes a snapshot of the source tree.
    A commit object links tree objects together into a history. It contains the name of a tree object (of the top-level source directory),
    a time stamp, a log message, and the names of zero or more parent commit objects.
    A tag object is a container that contains reference to another object and can hold additional meta-data related to another object.
    Most commonly, it is used to store a digital signature of a commit object corresponding to a particular release of the data being tracked by Git.
 
    '''heads'''
    refers to an object locally.
    '''remotes'''
    refers to an object which exists in a remote repository.
    '''stash'''
    refers to an object not yet committed.
    '''meta'''
    e.g. a configuration in a bare repository, user rights. The refs/meta/config namespace was introduced resp gets
    used by Gerrit (software)[clarification needed][45]
    '''tags'''
    see above.
 
'''Common Usage'''
 
'''create a new repository'''
create a new directory, open it and perform a
git init
to create a new git repository.
 
'''checkout a repository'''
create a working copy of a local repository by running the command
git clone /path/to/repository
when using a remote server, your command will be
git clone username@host:/path/to/repository
 
'''workflow'''
your local repository consists of three "trees" maintained by git. the first one is your Working Directory
which holds the actual files. the second one is the Index which acts as a staging area and finally the HEAD
which points to the last commit you've made.
 
'''add & commit'''
You can propose changes (add it to the Index) using
git add <filename>
git add *
This is the first step in the basic git workflow. To actually commit these changes use
''git commit -m "Commit message"''
Now the file is committed to the HEAD, but not in your remote repository yet.
 
'''pushing changes'''
Your changes are now in the HEAD of your local working copy. To send those changes to your
remote repository, execute
''git push origin master''
Change master to whatever branch you want to push your changes to.
If you have not cloned an existing repository and want to connect your repository to a remote
server, you need to add it with
''git remote add origin <server>''
Now you are able to push your changes to the selected remote server
 
'''update & merge'''
to update your local repository to the newest commit, execute
''git pull''
in your working directory to fetch and merge remote changes.
to merge another branch into your active branch (e.g. master), use
''git merge <branch>''
in both cases git tries to auto-merge changes. Unfortunately, this is not always possible and results in conflicts.
You are responsible to merge those conflicts manually by  editing the files shown by git. After changing, you need to mark them as merged with
''git add <filename>''
before merging changes, you can also preview them by using
''git diff <source_branch> <target_branch>''
 
'''replace local changes'''
In case you did something wrong, which for sure never happens ;), you can replace local changes using the command
git checkout -- <filename>
this replaces the changes in your working tree with the last content in HEAD. Changes already added to the index,
as well as new files, will be kept.
If you instead want to drop all your local changes and commits, fetch the latest history from the server and point
your local master branch at it like this
git fetch origin
git reset --hard origin/master
 
'''log'''
in its simplest form, you can study repository history using.. git log
You can add a lot of parameters to make the log look like what you want. To see only the commits of a certain author:
git log --author=bob
To see a very compressed log where each commit is one line:
git log --pretty=oneline
Or maybe you want to see an ASCII art tree of all the branches, decorated with the names of tags and branches:
git log --graph --oneline --decorate --all
See only which files have changed:
git log --name-status
These are just a few of the possible parameters you can use. For more, see git log --help
 
'''tagging'''
it's recommended to create tags for software releases. this is a known concept, which also exists in SVN.
You can create a new tag named 1.0.0 by executing
git tag 1.0.0 1b2e1d63ff
the 1b2e1d63ff stands for the first 10 characters of the commit id you want to reference with your tag.
You can get the commit id by looking at the...

Analog audio is recorded by sampling it 44,100 times per second, and then these samples are used
to reconstruct the audio signal when playing it back.
 
'''Images'''
'''PNG''' supports palette-based images (with palettes of 24-bit RGB or 32-bit RGBA colors), grayscale images (with or without alpha channel),
and full-color non-palette-based RGB[A] images (with or without alpha channel). PNG was designed for transferring images on the Internet,
not for professional-quality print graphics, and therefore does not support non-RGB color spaces such as CMYK.
 
'''JPEG'''/JFIF supports a maximum image size of 65,535×65,535 pixels, hence up to 4 gigapixels (for an aspect ratio of 1:1).
JPEG is a commonly used method of lossy compression for digital images, particularly for those images
produced by digital photography. The degree of  compression can be adjusted, allowing a selectable tradeoff between storage size
and image quality. JPEG typically achieves 10:1 compression with little perceptible loss in image quality.

'''Compact Disc'''
Capacity Typically up to 700 MiB (up to 80 minutes audio)
Read mechanism 780 nm wavelength (infrared and red edge) semiconductor laser, 1200 Kibit/s (1×)
Write mechanism 1200 Kibit/s (1×)
 
Sampling 4 bit audio (2^4) gives us only 16 values, a far cry from 16-bit audio's 65,536! sample rate.
'''Sample rate''' refers to the number of samples or measurements taken each  second from a recording.
The typical CD sample rate is 44.1kHz, or 44,100 samples per second.
 
The '''bit rate''' is quantified using the bits per second unit bit/s, often in conjunction with an SI prefix such as "kilo"
(1 kbit/s = 1000 bit/s), "mega" (1 Mbit/s = 1000 kbit/s), "giga" (1 Gbit/s = 1000 Mbit/s) or "tera" (1 Tbit/s = 1000 Gbit/s).
The non-standard abbreviation "bps" is often used to replace the standard symbol "bit/s", so that, for example, "1 Mbps" is
used to mean one million bits per second.
One byte per second (1 B/s) corresponds to 8 bit/s.
 
The '''RGB565 color format''' is the same as the RGB555 color format, except that 6 bits are used for
the green value instead of 5. Therefore, all 16 bits are in use. The  organization of the pixels
in the image buffer is from left to right and bottom up.
'''RGB888''' --> 24-bit RGB (888)

    Get an idea what to do by next week. Ideas:
    1. Pyglet,pygame or kivy for a game or simulation:
    1.1. MP beat em' up
    1.2. Survival space sim, use webcam for dynamic view
    1.3. Planet rotation simulation

    2. WebApp
    2.1. Budget Management with a GUI
   Notes: 
   * Set up RPi web-server
   * Use XMind to map the idea first
   * Run basic website and deploy webapp to it. 
   * Check out RPi components and sensors. 
   * Buy a breadboard.

Stuff about node.js.

Operating Systems

Command line:

   Options modify the behavior of commands:
       ls -a lists all contents of a directory, including hidden files and directories
       ls -l lists all contents in long format
       ls -t orders files and directories by the time they were last modified
       Multiple options can be used together, like ls -alt
   From the command line, you can also copy, move, and remove files and directories:
       cp copies files
       mv moves and renames files
       rm removes files
       rm -r removes directories
   Wildcards are useful for selecting groups of files and directories


   Redirection reroutes standard input, standard output, and standard error.
   The common redirection commands are:
       > redirects standard output of a command to a file, overwriting previous content.
       >> redirects standard output of a command to a file, appending new content to old content.
       < redirects standard input to a command.
       | redirects standard output of a command to another command.
   A number of other commands are powerful when combined with redirection commands:
       sort: sorts lines of text alphabetically.
       uniq: filters duplicate, adjacent lines of text.
       grep: searches for a text pattern and outputs it.
       sed : searches for a text pattern, modifies it, and outputs it.
