help please
. Display a sorted list of all of the files in the current directory and the number of lines and words in each. You should not have ‘total' in your output. (Your script can assume that the current directory contains just files and no subdirectories)

this is what i got so far

wc -l -w *
but it keeps giving me the total file too

please help me
