But if the lines are split on the first -e expression, there should only be one function per line when the second -e expression is matched, shouldn't it?

I work 40 hours a week, I'm doing what I can. It's not like I can just pick it up, read the man pages, a few examples, and know how to do it. I've tried hundreds of permutations of these expressions...

This assignment has been so confusing, I'm losing the entire purpose to be honest. I believe I have to change headings like:

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
into

main(argc, argv)
int argc;...

I was only using grep to test the output so I could see it in color. I've read that sed doesn't support lazy matching and it has to be emulated with 'not' patterns, using [^ ], but I can't figure it...

I completely forgot * matches zero or more.

How do i make this a lazy return? All I...

Maybe I'm just missing something, but if you use what you have above, "int a(int b)" won't be found by using those sed patterns because it's expecting to have at least another variable passed to...

Thanks for the explanation of the first bit there. I was confused.

As for the back-referencing in sed, what if I don't know how many variables are being passed in the function? I have to...

When you use sed '/^#/p;/^#/d;s/int/flub/g' in this fashion, how does it operate on the line? you have 3 commands (1. print, 2. delete, 3. substitute) acting on one big line of text. Does it do all...

I got this back from the teacher today in email:


What does he mean by asking sed to edit all applicable lines at once?

I've been arguing with this teacher the entire semester about what he's assigning and how he's assigning things. He's terrible, overall, and the class attendance (~18/60 daily) and average on the...

That's what I thought too at one point. I couldn't be using i as a variable unless it was defined earlier. It didn't make sense to have it after the block of the function. The instructions are a...

1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data:



2. Relevant commands, code, scripts, algorithms:

We have to do this using 'unix tools' and not use the script as if it were C....
