Solution

The correct command to extract the base filename for each line in the file is:

while read line; do
filename=$(basename "$line")
echo "$filename"
done < filenames.txt

This command reads each line from the file filenames.txt and assigns it to the variable line. The basename "$line" command extracts the base filename from the path, and this is assigned to the variable filename. The echo "$filename" command then prints the base filename. This process is repeated for each line in the file.

Define a function named read_length_per_line(filename) that takes a filename as a parameter and returns a list of integers. The function reads the contents of the file specified in the parameter and returns a list of values where each value is the length per line. For example, if a file contains the following:Hans loved to make up storiesHe would sit for hours in the tiny yardthen, the function returns [29, 39] where 29 is the number of characters in the first line and 39 is the number of characters in the second line.Here are some text files you can test your code with:names.txtmini_names.txtFor example:Test Resultprint(read_length_per_line('sentences.txt'))[29, 39]
