Without any modicum of doubt, Dr and his colleagues back then had the best PLD sessions. I have watched every single one of the sessions more than once and it has really helped me in my ALX SE journey. Thanks to Emmanuel, Tony, etc for their relevant questions and contributions.
More content is on the flow chart he described. So search for codes that does what the flowchart decribes, building a shell in c. Breakdown codes you find online and try to understand...its tough I won't lie Also start reading on the man pages he mentioned in this video e.g. getline()
Thanks a lot sir. I am in cohort 9 and was struggling with this project. But your explanation has made it a lot easier for me understand. Kudos to you sir... i am grateful
This was very informative. Thank you Doc. I noticed the screen became blur towards the end. Was that intentional. Also, I would really appreciate if you can make the following sessions available. Thank you sir.
Sorry about that, I had to blur those parts out for copyright reasons and for same reasons the subsequent part isn't available. I have, however, writing a blogging series about it. Have you seen the blog posts yet?
Built-in files are different from executables, right? Executables are the ones in the PATH, right? Cause you kept saying built-in files are executables and mixed them up at certain points...Thanks for this though. You've really helped in fomenting my understanding of concepts in C and even when we did Shell.
The resources used were all shared in our Telegram group. You can send me a DM on Twitter for the link if you aren't already in the group (ehoneahobed.com/twitter )
Thank you so much Dr. Pls can i have access to the video you intend to share in d WhatsApp group 🙏. I can drop my WhatsApp number sir, or better still if I can be in your buddy's group as a guest , im really looking for place to learn. Without lieing, I have been finding it difficult to wrap my head around C. But you explain better.
