#! /bin/bash

# a bad and malicious program to create folder recursively,
# if you change the loop to infinite, then it will use up the inode of disk, and it is so deep recurisive that you can't even use 'rm -rf' to remove the folder,you can only write another program to remove folder from inner to top,

# define the deepth
declare n=5

echo -e "total deep:\t $n"
cd /tmp

while [ $n -gt 0 ];do
