Make sure you are use the commands and options as you intend and understand and be are able to describe and explain/justify. Notice the difference between: | Code Block |
|---|
[salexan5@mblog1 intro_to_linux]$ cat vegatables.txt | grep beans | sort
...
kidney beans
...
soy beans |
and | Code Block |
|---|
[salexan5@mblog1 intro_to_linux]$ cat vegatables.txt | grep -i beans | sort
...
kidney beans
kidney BEANS
...
soy beans
Soy Beans |
Should “soy beans” and “Soy Beans” be treated the same or different? You need to decide with respect to the context and use case you are following, and intending. What happens if you use bean instead of beans? What does the uniq -i option do?
