Is anyone know how to write a linux script? I need to write a script to total up my file size on particular folder.I totally have no idea how to do this.

This script have to run every 5 mminutes using Linux cron job. I have a Linux 8.0 Redhat machine runing at my backend office.

Any link will be useful.

Thanks for any reply.
