• This guide provides you with an introduction to the Turing-complete pattern matching programming language, AWK, which is great for data reporting and more.
  • The lowercase version, “awk”, refers to the program that runs scripts written in the AWK programming language. This type of program is known as an interpreter.
  • This chapter will give an overview of awk syntax and some examples to show what kind of problems you could solve using awk.

  • AWK (/ɔːk/) is a domain-specific language designed for text processing and typically used as a data extraction and reporting tool.
  • Used to specify the file containing the awk script. Reads the awk program source from the specified file, instead of the first command-line argument.
  • AWK komutu, grep ve sed'e benzer şekilde, örüntü temelli tarama ve işleme dilidir. NAWK ve GAWK adında daha gelişmiş yeni versiyonu ve alternatifi bulunur.
