awk to find the length of each record.
Hi Guys, I wanted to print the length of each record and the record itself. I tried the following awk ... Code:
awk 'a=length(); {print $a,$0}' file1
But it is giving me the records instead of length. and also, it giving me each record twice. Means the value of a is not the length of the record but the record itself.. could you please point out my mistake.. thanks Magesh ---------- Post updated at 06:52 PM ---------- Previous update was at 06:46 PM ---------- Guys, i found the answer.. Code:
awk '{print length($0),$0}' file1
