Please note /home/proton/ass7/assignment7 is a folder path ,you may use your path here
" mv a b
sed 1d b >a
rm b "
is used to remove certain lines from the temporary file before parsing sed $d refer to the last line,There are efficient methods to use the same without looping but this being easy to illustrate and understand is hence used.
"<<<" in the xmllint instruction refers to the shell instruction "shell within the terminal"
`grep -c "content= " c` are used to identify the pattern and please note the quotes are found below the tilde sign in the keyboard indicating its an instruction and not a string
$? -gt 0 usage in " if " after grep will cause by default to store the return value of grep instruction in $?
