Hi Guys,
I wanted to print the length of each record and the record itself.
I tried the following awk ...
awk 'a=length(); {print $a,$0}' file1
But it is giving me the records instead of length.
and also, it giving me each record twice. Means the value of a is not the length of the record but the record itself..
could you please point out my mistake..
thanks
Magesh
