how to extract a string value from the given line
Hi
I have an input as follows:
param1:value1|param2:value2|param3:value3|param4:value4|param5:value5
where, "|" and ":" are delimiters
Now suppose, I want to extract the value corresponding to "param4", i.e. "value4" in this case.
In case we use awk, I want to use the value in shell finally.
The position of "param4:value4" can be anywhere in the line,i.e., there might be a "|" after "param4:value4" or may be not.
The record "param4:value4" will surely exist, others might not
The OS details are as follows:
SunOS
Release: 5.9
Kernel architecture: sun4u
Application architecture: sparc
Hardware provider: Sun_Microsystems
If somebody could help, its will be gr8 !!
Tnx
Gaurav

GSL-RANDIST(1) General Commands Manual GSL-RANDIST(1)
NAME
gsl-randist - generate random samples from various distributions
SYNOPSYS
gsl-randist seed n DIST param1 param2 [..]
DESCRIPTION
gsl-randist is a demonstration program for the GNU Scientific Library. It generates n random samples from the distribution DIST using the
distribution parameters param1, param2, ...
EXAMPLE
Here is an example. We generate 10000 random samples from a Cauchy distribution with a width of 30 and histogram them over the range -100
to 100, using 200 bins.
gsl-randist 0 10000 cauchy 30 | gsl-histogram -100 100 200 > histogram.dat
A plot of the resulting histogram will show the familiar shape of the Cauchy distribution with fluctuations caused by the finite sample
size.
awk '{print $1, $3 ; print $2, $3}' histogram.dat | graph -T X
SEE ALSO
gsl(3), gsl-histogram(1).
