Answer 1

Explanation: Use unix command find with -ctime (creation time) flag

The find utility recursively descends the directory tree for each path listed, evaluating an expression (composed of the 'primaries' and 'operands') in terms of each file in the tree.

Solution: According to documenation

-ctime n[smhdw]
             If no units are specified, this primary evaluates to true if the difference
             between the time of last change of file status information and the time find
             was started, rounded up to the next full 24-hour period, is n 24-hour peri-
             ods.

             If units are specified, this primary evaluates to true if the difference
             between the time of last change of file status information and the time find
             was started is exactly n units.  Please refer to the -atime primary descrip-
             tion for information on supported time units.

Formula: find -ctime +[number][timeMeasurement] -ctime -[number][timeMeasurment]

Examples:

1.Find everything that were created after 1 week ago ago and before 2 weeks ago

find / -ctime +1w -ctime -2w

2.Find all javascript files (.js) in current directory that were created between 1 day ago to 3 days ago

find . -name "*\.js" -type f -ctime +1d -ctime -3d
