<p>You have gotten into a trouble during your regular upgrade of your archLinux<sup><a href="#user-content-fn-1" id="user-content-fnref-1" data-footnote-ref="true" aria-describedby="footnote-label">1</a></sup>
installation… You&#x27;ve been carelessly running the upgrades for months and forgot
about clearing up the caches.</p>
<p>Your task is to write a program <code>garbage_collect</code> that will evaluate the shell
history provided as a file and will try to find files or directories that are
suspiciously big and decide which of them should be deleted to free some space.</p>

<p>You are provided one file consisting of the captured buffer of the terminal. You
can see only two commands being used:</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p><code>cd somewhere</code> that changes the current working directory.</p>
<p>At the beginning you start in the root of the filesystem (i.e. <code>/</code>).</p>
<p>You are <strong>guaranteed</strong> that <code>somewhere</code> is:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>.</code> that is a current working directory (i.e. does nothing),</li>
<li><code>..</code> that moves you up one level (in case you are in <code>/</code>, does nothing), or</li>
<li>is a valid directory in the current working directory.</li>

<p>Your program should support 2 switches:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>-gt min_size</code> that will print out suspiciously big files.</li>
<li><code>-f total_size min_unused</code> that will print out a file to be deleted.</li>
</ul>

<p>With this switch you are provided one additional argument:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>min_size</code> that is the lower bound (inclusive) for size of any file or
directory that is supposed to be listed.</li>
</ul>
<p>When your program is being run with this switch, it is is supposed to print out
all files <strong>and</strong> directories that are bigger than the provided <code>min_size</code>.</p>
<h3 class="anchor anchorWithStickyNavbar_LWe7" id="-f-total_size-min_unused"><code>-f total_size min_unused</code><a href="#-f-total_size-min_unused" class="hash-link" aria-label="Direct link to -f-total_size-min_unused" title="Direct link to -f-total_size-min_unused"></a></h3>
<p>With this switch you are provided two additional arguments:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>total_size</code> that is a total size of the filesystem<sup><a href="#user-content-fn-2" id="user-content-fnref-2" data-footnote-ref="true" aria-describedby="footnote-label">2</a></sup>.</li>
<li><code>min_unused</code> that is a minimum of free space required for an upgrade.</li>
</ul>
<p>Your program should find <strong>exactly one</strong> file or a directory that is of the
smallest size, but big enough to free enough space for the upgrade to proceed.</p>
<p>In other words, if that file or directory is deleted, following should hold:</p>

<li>Define <strong>structures</strong> (and <strong>enumerations</strong>, if applicable) for the parsed
information from the files.</li>
<li>For keeping the “records”, use some <strong>dynamic</strong> data structure.<!-- -->
<ul>
<li>Don&#x27;t forget to consider pros and cons of using <em>specific</em> data structures
before going through implementing.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>You <strong>are not required</strong> to produce 1:1 output to the provided examples, they
are just a hint to not waste your time tinkering with a user experience.</li>
<li>If any of the operations on the input files should fail,
<strong>you are expected to</strong> handle the situation <em>accordingly</em>.</li>
<li>Failures of any other common functions (e.g. functions used for memory
management) should be handled in <strong>the same way</strong> as they were in the
homeworks and seminars.</li>
<li>Your program <strong>must free</strong> all the resources before exiting.</li>
