How to search for the largest files on my computer vista?

To find the largest files on your computer using Explorer, open Computer and click up in the search box. When you click inside of it, a little window pops up below with a list of your recent searches and then a add search filter option.

Go ahead and click on Size and then you’ll get another menu with a couple of options:

Go ahead and pick something like Large, Huge or Gigantic otherwise you will get a list of way too many files. If you just want to see larger files, I suggest choosing huge or gigantic. Then just press enter without typing in anything else.


Alternatively, drop to command prompt type cd\

dir /s/o:s to get a listing in ascending order.

for descending order dir /s/o:-s

Since there might be a lot of files you might want to pipe it into a text file, simply add > largefiles.txt

dir /s/o:-s  > c:\temp\largefiles.txt    (the c:\temp directory must exist, if not the command will fail. Once you're on the root with cd\ just create the temp directory with md c:\temp or via the GUI, alternatively, again add & md c:\temp into the dir command)

If you want to get fancy you can also just open the results with the & 

dir /s/o:-s  > c:\temp\largefiles.txt & notepad c:\temp\largefiles.txt

Please Note:

(the c:\temp directory must exist, if not the command will fail. Once you're on the root with cd\ just create the temp directory with md c:\temp or via the GUI, alternatively, again add & md c:\temp into the dir command)

md c:\temp\ & dir /s/o:-s  > c:\temp\largefiles.txt & notepad c:\temp\largefiles.txt

Implement function easyCrypto() that takes as input a string and prints its encryption
jasenka [17]

Answer:

The program written in python is as follows;

import string

def easyCrypto(inputstring):

      for i in range(len(inputstring)):

             try:

                    ind = string.ascii_lowercase.index(inputstring[i])

                    pos = ind+1

                    if pos%2 == 0:

                           print(string.ascii_lowercase[ind-1],end="")

                    else:

                           print(string.ascii_lowercase[ind+1],end="")

             except:

                    ind = string.ascii_uppercase.index(inputstring[i])

                    pos = ind+1

                    if pos%2 == 0:

                           print(string.ascii_uppercase[ind-1],end="")

                    else:

                           print(string.ascii_uppercase[ind+1],end="")

anystring = input("Enter a string: ")

easyCrypto(anystring)

Explanation:

The first line imports the string module into the program

import string

The functipn easyCrypto() starts here

def easyCrypto(inputstring):

This line iterates through each character in the input string

      for i in range(len(inputstring)):

The try except handles the error in the program

             try:

This line gets the index of the current character (lower case)

                    ind = string.ascii_lowercase.index(inputstring[i])

This line adds 1 to the index

                    pos = ind+1

This line checks if the character is at even position

                    if pos%2 == 0:

If yes, it returns the alphabet before it

                           print(string.ascii_lowercase[ind-1],end="")

                    else:

It returns the alphabet after it, if otherwise

                           print(string.ascii_lowercase[ind+1],end="")

The except block does the same thing as the try block, but it handles uppercase letters

<em>              except: </em>

<em>                     ind = string.ascii_uppercase.index(inputstring[i]) </em>

<em>                     pos = ind+1 </em>

<em>                     if pos%2 == 0: </em>

<em>                            print(string.ascii_uppercase[ind-1],end="") </em>

<em>                     else: </em>

<em>                            print(string.ascii_uppercase[ind+1],end="") </em>

<em />

The main starts here

This line prompts user for input

anystring = input("Enter a string: ")

This line calls the easyCrypto() function

easyCrypto(anystring)
