Implementation of the unix wc functionality using Python. wc in unix allows the user to pass or pipe a file to see that file's word, line, character, and byte count.
Please clone the repo below:
git clone https://github.com/ASproson/wc_tool.git
When in the repo directory you can run the following commands on the test file:
python ccwc.py test.txt
python ccwc.py test.txt -h
python ccwc.py test.txt --help
python ccwc.py test.txt -w
python ccwc.py test.txt --words
python ccwc.py test.txt -l
python ccwc.py test.txt --lines
python ccwc.py test.txt -m
python ccwc.py test.txt --characters
Alternatively you can pipe in a specific file to the script itself and make use of the same commands above:
cat test.txt | python ccwc.py
