Hi,
I trying to find the solution for writing the programming in unix by shell programming for sorting thr string in alphabetical order.
I getting diffculty in that ,, so i want to find out the solution for that
Please do needful
Thanks

echo $TEMP|grep ""
I want to check TEMP is alphabetic or not in both the cases.but in above script i am getting 1($?) if TEMP is in pure lower case or pure upper case.i want to get 0($?) when TEMP would be alphabetic in either cases.pleaaaase help me out..... (4 Replies)
Hi all,
I So, I've got a monster text document comprising a list of various company names and associated info just in a long list one after another. I need to sort them alphabetically by name...
The text document looks like this:
Company Name:
the_first_company's_name_here
Address:... (2 Replies)
Hi everyone!
I am new to the forum and have recently started working with Linux.
Quick question, I want a user list in alphabetical order as the output of a shell script.
Who can help me!?
Thanks!

I've looking over a script for work and I've had a problem with the script not listing the files in alphabetical order. To look up PIDs for apps, it would be beneficial to have them listed in that order. Here is what I've been reviewing.

Hi, need help in sorting lines between strings "<section status = “ole-service”>" and "</section>" in alphabetical order, based on the text in red. Hoping for an AWK or SED solution. Thank you.

BC(1) General Commands Manual BC(1)NAME
bc - arbitrary-precision arithmetic language
SYNOPSIS
bc [ -c ] [ -l ] [ -s ] [ file ... ]
DESCRIPTION
Bc is an interactive processor for a language that resembles C but provides arithmetic on numbers of arbitrary length with up to 100 digits
right of the decimal point. It takes input from any files given, then reads the standard input. The -l argument stands for the name of an
arbitrary precision math library. The -s argument suppresses the automatic display of calculation results; all output is via the print
command.
The following syntax for bc programs is like that of C; L means letter a-z, E means expression, S means statement.
Lexical
comments are enclosed in /* */
newlines end statements
Names
simple variables: L
array elements: L[E]
The words ibase, obase, and scale
Other operands
arbitrarily long numbers with optional sign and decimal point.
(E)
sqrt(E)
length(E)
number of significant decimal digits
scale(E)
number of digits right of decimal point
L(E,...,E)
function call
Operators
+ - * / % ^ (% is remainder; ^ is power)
++ --
== <= >= != < >
= += -= *= /= %= ^=
Statements
E
{ S ; ... ; S }
print E
if ( E ) S
while ( E ) S
for ( E ; E ; E ) S
null statement
break
quit
"text"
Function definitions
define L ( L , ... , L ){
auto L , ... , L
S ; ... ; S
return E
}
Functions in
-l math library
s(x) sine
c(x) cosine
e(x) exponential
l(x) log
a(x) arctangent
j(n, x)
Bessel function
All function arguments are passed by value.
The value of an expression at the top level is printed unless the main operator is an assignment or the -s command line argument is given.
Text in quotes, which may include newlines, is always printed. Either semicolons or newlines may separate statements. Assignment to scale
influences the number of digits to be retained on arithmetic operations in the manner of dc(1). Assignments to ibase or obase set the
input and output number radix respectively.
The same letter may be used as an array, a function, and a simple variable simultaneously. All variables are global to the program. Auto-
matic variables are pushed down during function calls. In a declaration of an array as a function argument or automatic variable empty
square brackets must follow the array name.
Bc is actually a preprocessor for dc(1), which it invokes automatically, unless the -c (compile only) option is present. In this case the
dc input is sent to the standard output instead.
EXAMPLE
Define a function to compute an approximate value of the exponential. Use it to print 10 values. (The exponential function in the library
gives better answers.)
scale = 20
define e(x) {
auto a, b, c, i, s
a = 1
b = 1
s = 1
for(i=1; 1; i++) {
a *= x
b *= i
c = a/b
if(c == 0) return s
s += c
}
}
for(i=1; i<=10; i++) print e(i)
