SED & AWK 2e

Los clásicos nunca mueren, excelentes herramientas para procesamiento de texto, en lo personal las utilizo, junto con M4, para mantener diversas versiones de código, en entornos CI/CD enfocados a la calidad.

This book is amazing and holds a great educational value beyond merely learning the titular tools. It refers to itself as a handbook, which I find to be quite an understatement.It explains the tools using a unified framework approach which makes everything about them logical. It goes into their lineages and how under the stark difference in syntax, the two tools share a lot in terms of philosophy and underlying mechanics.The way they demonstrate each argument through use cases the authors had faced previously and solved with either tool makes it really easy to understand the argument at an intuitive level even before experimenting with it.But perhaps what I find pleasent the most about this book is the style of writing. You feel so close to the thinking process that produces it, yet you hardly feel any ego, unlike most technical publications today. I had hard time putting the book away and I was always keen on the time I set aside for reading it. Something I don't always experience with technical books. Perhaps it is that people were not allowed to publish unless they had a way with words before web 2.0 came along! (Just look at the photo attached of a hilarious footnote from the book).And as a data scientist heavily involved in Natural Language Processing, I was using what I learned on the go with my daily tasks.If you want to understand Unix and Unix like systems better, then this is definitely an important book to read and keep by your side.

correspond en tout point. a ce qui était attendu par mon fils qui l’a commandé sur le site. très bien.

A classic, I had this book 10 years ago or more, and I enjoyed it then, now I got it again, and will enjoy it again.

Wer darüber nachdenkt sich dieses Buch zu kaufen sollte eventuell vorher "Classic Shell Scripting" des selben Verlags lesen.Dieses Buch beschreibt hervorragend sed & awk, aber eben nicht mehr. Viele Dinge in dem Buch machen natürlich nur Sinn oder ergeben einen Nutzen wenn man fundierte Shell-Scripting Fähigkeiten vorweisen kann.
