Bash: Maximum Size File

Note: To be done in bash /terminal

Given the output of the Unix ls -l command, which includes details like file sizes for multiple files, write a script that identifies and prints the name of the file with the largest size.

Example

Consider the output of the ls -l command as follows:

-rw-r--r-- 1 user group 1924 Aug 1 12:00 file1.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 user group 2848 Aug 1 12:00 file2.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 user group 512 Aug 1 12:00 file3.txt

The largest file in this output is file2.txt, so the result should be printed as follows: file2.txt

Function Description

Complete the function find_max_size_file in the editor with the following parameters: string ls_output: a multi-line string containing the output of the Linux ls -l command

Outputs

string: the name of the largest file

Constraints

The total number of lines can be up to 1,000.

Example 1:

Input:["-rw-r--r-- 1 user group 1924 Aug 1 12:00 file1.txt\n-rw-r--r-- 1 user group 2848 Aug 1 12:00 file2.txt\n-rw-r--r-- 1 user group 512 Aug 1 12:00 file3.txt"]

Output:"file2.txt"

Example 2:

Input:["-rw-r--r-- 1 user staff 1234 Jul 30 14:22 file1.txt\n-rw-r--r-- 3 user staff 102 Jul 31 09:15 Documents\n-rw-r--r-- 1 user staff 20480 Jul 29 21:05 script.sh\n-rw-r--r-- 1 user staff 40960 Jul 28 10:30 image.png\n-rw-r--r-- 5 user staff 170 Jul 30 18:42 Projects"]

Output:"image.png"

Example 3:

Input:["-rw-r--r-- 1 user group 4096 Jul 1 12:34 file1.txt\n-rw-r--r-- 2 user group 4096 Jun 28 09:21 directory1\n-rw-r--r-- 1 user group 2048 Jun 30 18:47 file2.txt\n-rw-r--r-- 3 user group 4096 Jul 2 07:58 directory2\n-rw-r--r-- 1 user group 8192 Jul 3 11:11 script.sh\n-rw-r--r-- 1 user group 10240 Jul 4 15:32 report.pdf\n-rw-r--r-- 4 user group 4096 Jul 5 08:19 project\n-rw-r--r-- 1 user group 5120 Jul 6 13:45 image.png"]
