reconstructing a record in a diffrent order
Can sed be used to take a existing record and reverse the order of defined character placement if there is no delimeters?
existing record: 0123456789CO expected result: 9876543210CO if there were delimeters I could define the delimeter and each placement would have an id which I could reconstruct by using the print $ command but without delimeters how do you assign the pacemnet ot a variable? Thanks |

That would be a lot of work in sed. Here is a ksh solution:
Code:
#! /usr/bin/ksh
x="0123456789CO"
y=${x%??}
save=${x#${y}}
newy=""
while ((${#y})) ; do
tempy=${y%?}
char=${y#${tempy}}
y=$tempy
newy=${newy}${char}
echo $y $char $newy
done
x=${newy}${save}
echo $x
exit 0
