1. Find all occurrences of the word patricia in a file.
grep patricia myfile
2. Find all occurrences of the pattern “.Pp” at the beginning of a line. The single
quotes assure the entire expression is evaluated by grep instead of by the
shell. The carat (|) means from the beginning of a line.
grep '|.Pp' myfile
3. Find either 19, 20 or 25 in the file calendar.
grep '19|20|25' calendar
4. Find the total number of lines that matches a character in the range of “a” to “z”.
grep -c '[a-z]' reference/alphabet.text
5. Display all lines that have a dollar sign ($) character in them. You must escape
the dollar sign character so grep will not interpret the character. Also, display
the line number as well as the line that contains the match.
grep -n '\$' valid.file

split [-b byte_count[k|m]] [-l line_count] [file [name]]
The split utility reads the given file (or standard input if no file is specified) and
breaks it up into files of 1000 lines each.
-b Create smaller files byte_count bytes in length. If k is appended to the
number, the file is split into byte_count kilobyte pieces. If m is appended to
the number, the file is split into byte_count megabyte pieces.
-l Create smaller files line_count lines in length.
