Answer / kuvaibhav
find /tmp -mtime n where n can be +ve or -ve
+n says, file modified in last n days
-n says, file modified more than n days ago
ex. if today is 5th of a month
file1 has mtime 3rd
file2 has mtime 2nd
then find . -mtime 2 will report file1
then find . -mtime -2 will report file2 only
