What are some good examples of processes to automate for a python beginner to start with?

Tryi开发者_Go百科ng to get some initial bearings on useful processes that a basic working knowledge of python can assist with or make less tedious. Specifically, processes that can be executed on the command line in a Linux environment. An example or two of both the tedious process as well as sample code to use as a starting point would be greatly appreciated.

What you want to automate depends on what you are doing manually and what your role is ? If you are a system administrator (say) and if you have shell scripts written to automate some of the tasks (like server management, user account creation etc.) you can port them to Python.
