Hi All ,

How to print the last string from a line , with the help of awk.

Please help asap:

Suppose I have several line like:

-----
abc def ghi jkl mno pqr stu vwx yz=10001
abc eed fsf sffs yz=10002
zfd sf sfs sf ssfs sfs fsf yz=10012
...
-----


I want to print yz value only.

How can I do that .

Thanks,

Hi,

Try like this :

awk '{print $NF}'

Hope this helps

rveri,
to get the 10001, 10002 etc. you can use
awk '{print $NF}' | awk -F'=' '{print $NF}'

but I am sure this can be combined into one, but I am not an awk expert.

Hi again,
please no points for this post!

You can drop the first awk of my previous answer and get the same results.
Sam can be done with:
cut -d'=' -f2 file

Hi,

$ awk -F= '{print $NF}' < infile

should also work.
