CCWC

CCWC is an implementation of this challenge. It's Coding Challenge's wc tool (thus CCWC), written in Rust. wc is a tool that when given a file path, will return the lines, characters, and bytes count of the file. Currently it supports all the options and any permutations of them:

• -c to show bytes count.
• -l to show lines count.
• -w to show words count.
• -m to show characters count.

Usage

Assuming that the compiled binary is already in your path:

Not providing options will show the bytes, lines, and words of the supplied file.

ccwc file_name.txt

Alternatively you can provide the options:

ccwc -lwc file_name.txt

Any permutations work:

ccwc -wl file_name.txt

It shows the report rather differently, but it can be configured in reports.rs. It also supports piping:

cat file_name.txt | ccwc -l
