Xiaobian to share with you how Linux statistics text lines/words and characters, I believe most people do not know how, so share this article for everyone's reference, I hope you read this article after a great harvest, let's go to understand it!

Linux system wants to count the number of lines, words and characters of text, how to count it? We can use SecureCRT for statistics, so let's take a look at the detailed tutorial below.

Start Linux and connect to Linux using SecureCRT (or another ssh tool such as xshell). It can also be operated directly on Linux operating system, and the terminal can be opened on Linux system.

2. Enter wc in the terminal to see if the wc command has been installed on the Linux system (if the wc name is not installed, please install it, and the Linux system generally comes with the command). After the wc command is entered in the terminal, the wc command appears as shown in the figure, indicating that the Linux system has been installed.

3. Count the number of file lines. For example, count the number of rows in the install.log file. Count the number of lines in install.log file: wc -l install.log or cat install.log| wc -l

4. Count the number of words, or take the install.log file as an example. Command to count words in install.log file: wc -w install.log or cat install.log| wc -w

5. Count the number of characters. Again, consider the install.log file. Command to count characters in install.log file: wc -c install.log or cat install.log| wc -c

6, at the same time statistics file lines, words and characters. Use wc install.log. Print out the number of lines, words, and characters separated by tabs.

7. Count the number of characters in the text, for example: echo -n "1234567"| wc -c

-n is used to avoid echo adding extra newlines.

Wc can count the length of the longest line in the file. Add the-L option after wc.

Example: wc install.log -L

Linux is a free-to-use and freely distributed UNIX-like operating system, is a POSIX-based multi-user, multitasking, multi-threaded and multi-CPU operating system, using Linux to run major Unix tools, applications and network protocols.
