I have a command that I am trying to read a particular amount of lines with
wc -l somefile | awk '{print $1}'
if you prefer the comman line, you can do
wc -l somefile | awk -v a=42 '{t=$1+a; print t}'
when it givs the number of lines, I am trying to find out how to use that number in an addition problem. Can someone help me with that?
