Shell Programming and Scripting

got a file as y.txt

Code:

1 abc,def,ghj
2 defj,abc.kdm,ijk
3 lmn,cbk,mno
4 tmp,tmop,abc,pkl
5 pri,chk,cbk,lmo
6 def,cbk.pro,abc.kdm

i want to search in the above file the key word like abc

looking for two outcomes by passing the parameter value as abc into function and the two outocmes are :

1) how many lines the abc is available. It should search only for abc and not abc.kdm.

count should be 2.

2) also the line numbers of the respective lines where abc is available like below.

1 abc,def,ghj
4 tmp,tmop,abc,pkl


ck.sh abc

it should give two outcomes

can someone give me the solution for this ?

edit by bakunin: first off, you are asking in the wrong forum. Second: this looks so much like homework and the question is so basic, that i suggest you take a look at the manpage of "grep" instead writing threads here. Anyway, this thread is closed.
