To search files created by particular user or user ID 1

I have to search for files created by a particular user or user id.

Basically, I want to have a shell script for this.

thanks for sharing!

man find

#--------
-user uname
True if the file belongs to the user uname. If
uname is numeric and does not appear as a login
name in the /etc/passwd file, it is taken as a
user ID.
#--------
vlad

| #include<disclaimer.h> |

Well, guess if I have to find &quot;*.c&quot; files created by a user. What would be the script.

1. man find
2. find <path2dir> -type f -user userName -name '*.c' vlad
