Awk is essentially a stream editor. One can pipe text to it, and it manipulates the lines on line-by-line basis. It is also a programming language. It has the ability to remember context, do comparisons, and most things another full programming language can do. In Awk training course, you will learn to use AWK to read and write data in a variety of formats, produce reports, and automate repetitive tasks.
Ability to write programs in a high level language (such as C or shell) is very helpful in completing the lab exercises and understanding the lectures. A good working knowledge of the UNIX environment is necessary.
