Explanation

The beach.sh script iterates over words in $1. ${#i} gives string length. Words longer than 4 characters get prefixed with '#'. From 'On the beach at night, stands a child with her father': 'beach'(5), 'night,'(6), 'stands'(6), 'child'(5), 'father'(6) qualify. Punctuation like comma in 'night,' counts as part of the word.
