Display the standard deviation of a column of numbers with awk

I was concerned that the other scripts didn't use the correct order of operations for the calculation. Variance needs to be squared before being summed, then divided by NR and then square rooted. Not sure if this method is correct but this is what I came up with. I think it works correctly but I'm not totally sure. If anyone could critique it that would be great.

Auto-kill auto-spawned process

Given a process name (kdiff3 in this example) that keeps auto-spawning/starting, auto-kill until it stops, assuming there is an upper limit (if not, reboot). This was beneficial after I clicked the DIFF button in a git GUI on a merge commit. 2000+ files were being opened one after the other in my diff program (kdiff3). Each time I closed one (or quit Kdiff3), the next file would be auto-opened in Kdiff3.

Get AWS temporary credentials ready to export based on a MFA virtual appliance

You might want to secure your AWS operations requiring to use a MFA token. But then to use API or tools, you need to pass credentials generated with a MFA token. This commands asks you for the MFA code and retrieves these credentials using AWS Cli. To print the exports, you can use: `awk '{ print "export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=\"" $1 "\"\n" "export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=\"" $2 "\"\n" "export AWS_SESSION_TOKEN=\"" $3 "\"" }'` You must adapt the command line to include: * $MFA_IDis ARN of the virtual MFA or serial number of the physical one * TTL for the credentials

resize all JPG images in folder and create new images (w/o overwriting)

Convert all jpegs in the current directory into ~1024*768 pixels and ~ 150 KBytes jpegs

See why a program can't seem to access a file

Sometimes a program refuses to read a file and you're not sure why. You may have display_errors turned off for PHP or something. In this example, fopen('/var/www/test/foo.txt') was called but doesn't have read access to foo.txt. Strace can tell you what went wrong. E.g., if php doesn't have read access to the file, strace will say "EACCESS (Permission denied)". Or, if the file path you gave doesn't exist, strace will say "ENOENT (No such file or directory)", etc. This works for any program you can run from the command-line, e.g., strace python myapp.py -e open,access... Note: the above command uses php-cli, not mod_php, which is a different SAPI with diff configs, etc.

Select and Edit a File in the Current Directory

This command displays a simple menu of file names in the current directory. After the user made a choice, the command invokes the default editor to edit that file. * Without the break statement, the select command will loop forever * Setting the PS3 prompt is optional * If the user types an invalid choice (such as the letter q), then the variable $f will become an empty string. * For more information, look up the bash's select command

Insert the last argument of the previous command

for example if you did a: $ ls -la /bin/ls then $ ls !$ is equivalent to doing a $ ls /bin/ls

Slightly shorter to type

Matrix Style

It's the same command as submitted, but first with a command to make all characters green. It's the only way it looked "matrix-like" on my gnome-terminal.
