Not sure how much you want logged.
1. just result.
2. Command and result


For 1, it would be something like

ls -lt *.txt > result.log
ps -ef|grep pro >> result.log

For 2, it would be something like
echo ls -lt *.txt > result.log
ls -lt *.txt >> result.log
echo ps -ef|grep pro >> result.log
ps -ef|grep pro >> result.log

At the top of your script, put:

exec 2> "$HOME/log.$$"
set -v ## or: set -x

The shell normally allow recording command history. Look at you shell
man page.
To log commands and output have a look at the man page of the script
command
