Your for-loop is off by one, it should start at 1, not 0.

You're counting the columns each time something equals that value, is that really what you want to do? If you just want to count the lines you can leave off the loop around count++ and it'll give you a count of lines.

gc

GC(1)							      General Commands Manual							     GC(1)

NAME

       gc - count graph components

SYNOPSIS

       gc [ -necCaDUrs?  ] [ files ]

DESCRIPTION

       gc is a graph analogue to wc in that it prints to standard output the number of nodes, edges, connected components or clusters contained in
       the input files.  It also prints a total count for all graphs if more than one graph is given.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       -n     Count nodes.

       -e     Count edges.

       -c     Count connected components.

       -C     Count clusters. By definition, a cluster is a graph or subgraph whose name begins with "cluster".

       -a     Count all. Equivalent to -encC

       -r     Recursively analyze subgraphs.

       -s     Print no output. Only exit value is important.

       -D     Only analyze directed graphs.

       -U     Only analyze undirected graphs.

       -?     Print usage information.

       By default, gc returns the number of nodes and edges.

OPERANDS

       The following operand is supported:

       files   Names of files containing 1 or more graphs in dot format.  If no files operand is specified, the standard input will be used.

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0   Successful completion.

       1   The -U or -E option was used, and a graph of the wrong type was encountered.
