reverse a string based on else
I have a file like this:
Dog Cat One ABCDEFGHIJ house
Dog Cat Two ABCDEFGHIJ house
Cat Cat One ABCDEFGHIJ house
Cat Cat Two ABCDEFGHIJ house
I want to look at $3 and if it says "Two" print out the line except reverse $4.
Dog Cat One ABCDEFGHIJ house
Dog Cat Two JIHGFEDCBA house
Cat Cat One ABCDEFGHIJ house
Cat Cat Two JIHGFEDCBA house
I was trying to just use a substring 'for loop'
awk '{
if ($3 == "One") print $1, $2, $3, $4, $5;
else if ($3 == "Two") print $1, $2, $3, for(i=length($4);i>=1;i--)
print substr($4,i,1), $5
}' infile > outfile &
This isn't working and obviously I'm lost.
Any help would be fantastic.

I know the option to do this in bash is: echo "Manish" | rev

Hello,
Can anyone explain for me in this script to reverse the string?
1) the "x=x" part, how it works?
$ echo welcome | awk '{ for(i=length;i!=0;i--)x=x substr($0,i,1);}END{print x}'
$ emoclew2) x seems to be an array at the END, but can it automatically print the whole array in awk?
Thanks... (8 Replies)
