== Print from 3rd field till end ==
<source lang="bash">
awk '{ \
for (i = 3; i <= NF; i++) { \
printf("%s ", $i); \
} \
printf("\n") }'
</source>
== Print with condition ==
awk '{if ($3 =="" || $4 == "" || $5 == "") print "Some score for the student",$1,"is missing";'}' student-marks
== Print if value ==
<nowiki>$ echo "a b c d" | awk '($4){print "yes"}'
yes
$ echo "a b c d" | awk '($14){print "yes"}' ## prints nothing, no $14
$ echo "a b c 0" | awk '($4){print "yes"}' ## prints nothing, $4 is 0</nowiki>
== Print columns as lines ==
ls -lR | awk '{for(x=1;$x;++x) print $x}'
<nowiki>awk '{for(x=1;$x;x++)print $x}'

| | |
| | |-----> increment x by 1 at the end of each loop.
| |--------> run the loop as long as there is a field number x
|------------> initialize x to 1</nowiki>
== Print from line x to line y ==
<nowiki>I suggest the sed solution, but for the sake of completeness,
awk 'NR >= 57890000 && NR <= 57890010' /path/to/file
To cut out after the last line:
awk 'NR < 57890000 { next } { print } NR == 57890010 { exit }' /path/to/file</nowiki>
