• Change directory to your subfolder by cd "rr-shell-data-processing".
• Make an empty new items named as "README.md" and as ".gitignore" using command "ni README.md" and "ni .gitignore".
• Find an interesting web page (http://shakespeare.mit.edu/julius_caesar/full.html (Links to an external site.)) and copy it.
• Use curl to return the page text. Hint: curl "http://shakespeare.mit.edu/julius_caesar/full.html"
• Commands to return the next text by using curl

   curl "http://shakespeare.mit.edu/julius_caesar/full.html" -O "data.txt"

To request content from an HTTPS url,use the command:

[Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12

• Then close the window in PowerShell.

To process the text data using Bash commands

• Transform each space ' ' into a return character '\12' (aka ASCII line feed) [2]

  tr ' ' '\12' < data.txt

• Functionally, this "flat maps" each line into individual words. Pipe the output to sort (send the results of one command as input into another command)

tr ' ' '\12' < data.txt | sort

• Pipe the sorted output to uniq -c to count

 tr ' ' '\12' < data.txt | sort | uniq -c

• Pipe the reduced output to sort with -nr flag

tr ' ' '\12' < data.txt | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr

• To redirect the output to result.txt

tr ' ' '\12' < data.txt | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr > result.txt

Text files:-

• Input file data.txt
• Output file result.txt
