Write a bash script to calculate the frequency of each word in a text file
words.txt
.
For simplicity sake, you may assume:
-
contains only lowercase characters and spacewords.txt
characters.' '
- Each word must consist of lowercase characters only.
- Words are separated by one or more whitespace characters.
For example, assume that
words.txt
has the following content:
the day is sunny the the
the sunny is is
Your script should output the following, sorted by descending frequency:
the 4
is 3
sunny 2
day 1
Note:
Don't worry about handling ties, it is guaranteed that each word's frequency count is unique.
Hint:
Could you write it in one-line using Unix pipes?
<span style="font-size:18px;">cat words.txt|tr -s ' ' '\n'|sort|uniq -c|sort -rn|awk '{print $2, $1}'</span>
这一题提示用管道命令,我们就成全他
第一道工序:先将原文件格式整理一下,将所有的空格替换为换行符。(这里有个小疑惑,多余的空格并不会造成多次换行)
<span style="font-size:18px;">tr -s ' ' '\n'</span>
第二道工序:这里来了很常见的一个用法 sort|uniq -c 先通过sort将重复的数据按首字母排序放在一起,然后用uniq进行计数,是不是很像消除游戏的过程^_^,随后再进行一次排序,注意这里sort的两个参数,-r按题意降序排列,-n使用纯数字进行排序(默认是以文字类型来排序的)
<span style="font-size:18px;">sort | uniq -c | sort -rn</span>
第三道工序:无关紧要的格式问题
<span style="font-size:18px;">awk ‘{ print $2,$1}’</span>
至此,问题就解决了
