PHP Execution error with awk script
Hi,

I run an awk script and I got the error attached below:
here are the lines that the compiler point to as an error:
Code:
duration = timeEnd1-timeBegin1;

print "Transmission: type of traffic " flow1 ; 

print “  - Total transmitted bits = ” totalBits1 ” bits”;

print “  - duration = ” duration ” s”; 

print “  - Thoughput = “  totalBits1/duration/1e3 ” kbps.”; 

print ” “;

Your help is highly appreciated

Regards,
MohdSmilie

Hi,
Thank you for your reply.. I was waiting for an answer.

I'm not sure I understand what I'm suppose to change. Do you mean I need to change the " to new one? If yes, what is the new one?

Could you please show me how?! By example
I appreciate your help through this.

Regards,
Mohd.
