i will leave it to you to try out. Its no fun if i do it for you. Here's a guide. Use a for loop to go through the files , read example 10-4 especially.

what's the difference between the syntax in first read and the read in the loop?

[skeeterbug]

so what is the "convenient shortcut" that you can use , for example, if you want to parse a log file of a certain format in Python or Ruby?

Well if you were writing a log parser in Python or Ruby, you can store the parsed data in an object oriented way. A nice re-usable library in Python in Ruby could go a long way, depending on your needs. Maybe later on he would want that output to go somewhere else, etc. I have no bash experience, so I can't speak for that (I skimmed the overview, and saw no object oriented section).

nothing!!!! i just type a number!!!

the loop is has errors it doesnt let me to re-enter a number as it is suppose to!!
