Using multiple conditions in sed

UNIX for Beginners Q & A
1

Hello Experts,

Sample.txt:

1#Cooker#Philips#NoCostEMI#Available
2#Cooker#Bajaj#NoCostEMI#Available
3#Cooker#Prestige#NoEMI#Available
4#Cooker#PP#NoCostEMI#OutOfStock
5#Purifier#Philips#NoCostEMI#Available

I need to print (using sed) details of Cooker which are Available.

I tried the following code:

sed -n '/Cooker/,/Available/p' Sample.txt

But I am not getting the desired result

I am using BASH shell.

Could you please help.

Thank you.

This would be easy with grep

grep Cooker  Sample.txt | grep Available

Thank you.

I am aware of using grep in order to achieve the desired result.
However, I wished to try it using sed.

Could you please let me know how this can be done using sed.

Hi

sed '/Cooker.*Available$/!d' Sample.txt

But as @Neo showed 'grep' here is the best option
You can change a little

grep 'Cooker.*Available$' Sample.txt

More options

sed -nr 's/.*Cooker#(.*)#Available$/\1/p' Sample.txt
grep -oP 'Cooker#\K.*(?=#Available$)' Sample.txt
