vi editor or vim editor in linux

                                      vi /vim-related Linux commands

 Note: To use vim tool/ Editor , we must install, command:  sudo apt-get install vim 

vi file_name1.txt  ==> to open file & (press insert/i) to do modifications in that file, press (Esc)then type(wq! ) to save the file with modifications.

 vi  <filename>  +13 To go for aparticular line(13 / 72) while opening the file with vi editor 

vi *105* 

(if you don't know the file name exactly but if you remember your the file name half, then you can open that file using vi *half file name*))

If you want to move all the files use the * symbol (* means all)
Ex: If you move all files to another directory /destination path.

      mv <space> * <space> Destination_path
                           or 
     mv <space> Source_path/* <space> Destination_path

Esc :set nu or Esc :set number ==> command will set line numbers for your code
Esc :set nonu or Esc :set nonumber ==> command will remove line numbers for your code

<Number>yy   ==>  To copy Number of lines in file 
Example:    yy   ==>  To copy single line in file 
                 4yy   ==>  To copy 4 line in file

   p    ==> to paste copied lines at once
 3p    ==> to paste copied lines 3 times

 u   ==> undo (undo any number of previous actions)

<Number>dd  ==> To delete Number of lines in file
Example:  dd   ==> To delete single line (where your cursor is present)
                3dd  ==> To delete 3 lines from the cursor position
To delete from specific line to specific line in a file with out opening it.
command : sed <space> -i <space> 'starting line number, ending line numberd' <space> file_name
d means delete
Example : sed -i '567,670d' test_Cfm3Util_5.py

/(forward slash)  used to search particular words or data in the file (in vi editors).
/<word>    *** make sure that word is case sensitive ***
after that lower case n search downwards from the current cursor position
after that Upper case N search downwards from the current cursor position

<Number> Shift + <   ==> To move Number of lines towards left hand side in a file 
Example:    Shift + <   ==> To move single line towards left hand side in the file
                4 Shift + <   ==>  To move Number of lines towards left hand side in the file 

<Number> Shift + >   ==> To move Number of lines towards right hand side in a file 
Example:    Shift + >   ==> To move single line towards right hand side in the file
                4 Shift + >   ==>  To move Number of lines towards right-hand side of the file

 Esc: set paste then paste your content by using p  (to paste precisely how the user copied content with indentation)

How to delete lines in vi editor or vim editor in linux

Delete a single line in vi editor

The command to perform the deletion is dd, which is pressing the letter ‘d’ in quick succession twice. It is just like double-clicking.

1. Go to the line that you want to delete in the editor
2. Press the ESC key. (This is to make sure that you are in the command mode)
3. Press dd to delete the line

Delete multiple lines in vi editor

If you know how many lines you want to delete ahead of time, then deleting multiple lines is just as easy as deleting a single line. You will prefix the dd command with the number of lines you want to remove.

1. Go to the first line that you want to delete
2. Press the ESC key
3. Press the number of lines you want to delete, followed by dd (eg. 4dd or 25dd)

The lines that you want to remove should be in succession or consecutive.

Delete lines in a range in vi editor

You can delete lines with in a range, if you know the start and end line numbers. This is a similar case to the one we mentioned in the previous section. The general syntax for deleting a range of lines is:

:[start number],[end number]d

So, to delete all lines between the lines number 111 and 234, you will

1. Hit ESC key
2. type :111,234d
3. Hit Enter

Delete all lines in vi editor

You can use the same syntax to delete all lines in the file. 

There are other ways to empty or truncate a file if you want to, but if you are already in the editor, then this will work just as well.

1. Hit ESC key
2. type :1,$d
3. Hit Enter

The $ character denotes the last line in the file. So the above command will delete lines starting with the first line and ending with the last line.

delete all lines before the current line

Another variation of the range is to delete the lines before the cursor or the current line in the editor. The dot (.) character denotes the current line in the editor.

1. Hit ESC key
2. type :1,.-1d
3. Hit Enter

The above command will remove all lines starting with the first line till the line before the current line.

Delete all lines after the current line

To delete lines after the current line, you can use the dot (.) to denote the current line and dollar ($) to denote the last line.

1. Hit ESC key
2. type :.+1,$d
3. Hit Enter

Delete lines that match a pattern in vi editor

You can also do a search and delete, if you want to delete lines that contain certain words or character sequences. So, if you want to delete all lines in the file that contain the word ‘saloon‘, then

1. Hit ESC key
2. type :g/saloon/d
3. Hit Enter

Delete lines that do not match the pattern

If you want to delete that do not match a specific pattern, then you will need to negate the match before deleting. So, to delete lines that do not have the word ‘saloon’, you will

1. Hit ESC key
2. type :v/saloon/d
3. Hit Enter

Delete all blank lines in a file

To delete all blank lines in a file, you can use a variation of the pattern matching.

1. Hit ESC key
2. type :g/^$/d
3. Hit Enter

Pattern matching in vi editor is a very powerful tool. If you make yourself familiar with the pattern matching commands in vi, then you can use it for all the various different text manipulation that you will come across.

Pylint in python/ Pylint score testing/ pylint package / Pylint Tutorial

pylint:

Pylint isn't smarter than you are: it may warn you about things that you have dedicated done.

Pylint tries hard to report as few false positives.

How to install pylint
==> Windows / OS X (MAC)     pip install pylint 
==> Ubuntu / Debian OS            sudo apt-get install pylint

from command prompt:

=================

python.exe -m pip install --upgrade pip

python -m pip install pylint

Utilization of pylint:
------------------------

==>  In terminal / command prompt go to the python file path.

==>  python -m pylint operators.py

==>  pylint  file_name.py  # this command will display  how much score your code rated.

                       or
        pylint directory/mymodule.py

Parallel pylint score validation : 
======================
It is possible to speed up the execution of Pylint.
If the running computer has more CPUs than one, then the work for checking all files could be spread across all cores via Pylints's sub-processes.
This functionality is exposed via the -j command-line parameter.
If the provided number is 0, then the total number of CPUs will be autodetected and used.

pylint -j 4 File_name1.py File_name2.py File_name3.py File_name4.py

This will spawn 4 parallel Pylint sub-process, where each provided module will be checked in parallel. Discovered problems by checkers are not displayed immediately. They are shown just after checking a module is complete.

There are some limitations in running checks in parallel in the current implementation. It is not possible to use custom plugins (i.e. --load-plugins option), nor it is not possible to use initialization hooks (i.e. the --init-hook option).

Exit codes

Pylint returns bit-encoded exit codes. If applicable, the table below lists the related stderr stream message output.

exit code	meaning	stderr stream message
0	no error
1	fatal message issued
2	error message issued
4	warning message issued
8	refactor message issued
16	convention message issued
32	usage error	"internal error while receiving resultsfrom child linter" "Error occurred, stopping the linter." "<return of linter.help()>" "Jobs number <#> should be greater than 0"
