AWK is not just a text processing utility, awk is a complete programming language!!
-
awk is a must. So powerful. Btw. You actually did just square. Not square root :)
-
At 8min, when you pipe uniq, note that 'uniq' does not detect repeated lines unless they are adjacent. You may want to sort the input first, or use 'sort -u' without 'uniq'. so it would be | sort | uniq OR | sort -u

DT: AWK is important for linux users Luke Smith 1 hour later: Why AWK is useless for linux users

This is a great tutorial about awk. I've learned quite a bit. The only thing that red flagged me was that NONE of those were square roots. They were squares.
-
In the square root example, very time DT said square root, he means square! Great video, DT!
-
14:00 - /^[b,c]/ matches anything that begins with a "b" or a "c" *or a comma*.
-
I just came to say that I can see that you listened to the comments and now you are sharing your knowledge on simple but technical stuff that's really helpfull. I apreciate that and also can feel that effort
-
Had to process a 120k line csv at work the other day. Awk was a god send
-
I bet someone is already rewriting awk in rust for the memes.
-
That is the most clear demonstration of AWK I have ever seen. Amazing.
-
Glad you made this video. I was stumbling upon awk in everywhere and wanted to learn it but didn't have time to do so. Thanks
-
This is great, this video arrived just in time since currently I am on problem automating a lot of stuff with bash scripting and using awk for text-processing. Thanks for the content!
-
Good introduction to awk. Back in 2013 i had to parse huge log files that had no field separator, even worst each line could be completely different depending on certain conditions. Awk saved my life.
-
Sir, your a wizard with awk, i only knew half of this ๐
-
This is one of the best explanations of awk I've seen! I'll save this one for some people I know that are still just learning Linux.
-
Nice, thank you. I am beginning my journey on bash and this is awesome.
-
Thank you Derek I appreciate the time and effort you put into making these videos. You help us "middle users" take things up a notch. Middle as in we are no longer beginners but won't ever be sysadmins. We do however want more out of their Linux system.
-
Needed a quick refresher on awk as I had no used it in years. This was a great video, covering the essentials. Cheers.
-
awk is awesome, but if you just want the number of lines, using wc is less characters to type :)
