Find command is a command for linux system to find files, and its biggest function is to help users find out the files they need quickly when using linux system.

Let's first introduce the directory approach of find search, which can be divided into two situations:

"." The representative is the current directory

"/" represents the root directory

The commonly used parameters and meanings of querying find command files are as follows:

1. Find-name: look up the file name directly, for example, find /-name a.txt: find the a.txt file in the root directory

2. Find-perm: search according to file permissions, for example: find /-perm 777 rwx-rwx-rwx: find files with permissions of 777 (rwx-rwx-rwx) in the root directory

3. Find-mtine-n (+ n): find files according to the change time of files, where-n represents files within n days, and + n represents files before n days, such as: find /-mtime-1: find files modified within 1 day

4. Find-type: find a certain type of file, followed by some parameters:

-d: directory

-p: pipe fil

-f: normal file

-I: symbolic link file

The file was found with the find command, and there are two ways to output it:

1. Find-print: standard output, such as find /'* .NCT'- print > a.txt, which represents the input of the nct-named file list in the root directory into a.txt

2. Find-exec: execute the shell command given by this parameter for the file found by the find command, such as:

Find-name test.txt-exec rm-f test.tx {}\

Find test and delete this file. The command must pay attention to the space between {} and\. Don't leave out the last ";"
