I have accidentally removed apt-get, how do I reinstall it?
$ sudo apt-get update
sudo: apt-get: command not found
$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure apt
/usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: apt is broken or not fully installed
I would like to mention I do not want to reinstall Linux!

I'm not sure what happened with your apt-get, but if you're unable to use it, you might want to use apt from Ubuntu repositories (simply downloading and installing via
sudo dpkg -i package_name)the functionality of apt is pretty much similar to what you get with apt-get.
