Shell Programming and Scripting

Hi ,

I have 100 records in a.txt file

Need to split the a.txt file in to 5 files

1ST File:

ex: My file name should be a1.txt - line count in file should be 1 to 15

2ND File:

ex: My file name should be a2.txt - line count in file should be 16 to 40

3ND File:

ex: My file name should be a3.txt - line count in file should be 41 to 60

4th file:

ex: My file name should be a4.txt - line count in file should be 61 to 90

5th file:

ex: My file name should be a4.txt - line count in file should be 91 to 10

Did you try anything at all?

This might work:

Code:

awk     'NR==1          {n=split(LNS,LN,",")}
         NR>LN[CNT]     {CNT++; FN="a"CNT".txt"}
                        {print $0 >FN}
        ' LNS="15,40,60,90,100" file
