The awk function split(s,a,sep) splits a string s into an awk array a using the delimiter sep.

set time = 12:34:56
set hr = `echo $time | awk '{split($0,a,":" ); print a[1]}'` # = 12
set sec = `echo $time | awk '{split($0,a,":" ); print a[3]}'` # = 56
# = 12 34 56
set hms = `echo $time | awk '{split($0,a,":" ); print a[1], a[2], a[3]}'`

Q:
name="768685676435435263341231231212321"
awk 'BEGIN {print split("$name", filearray, "")}'
為什么是1
而
awk 'BEGIN {print split("768685676435435263341231231212321", filearray, "")}'
則返回正確的結果，應該是7，有沒有人解答一下？

A:
變量引用錯誤，這樣做試試
awk 'BEGIN {print split('"\"$name\""', filearray, "")}'

awk規定引用系統變量必須使用單引號加雙引號，即'"$sysvar"'這樣的格式，但是split函數也需要雙引號來定界，但這個雙引號又不能讓sh解釋，而應留給awk來解釋，所以使用了\"和\"組成的雙引號

split函數的用法

he awk function split(s,a,sep) splits a string s into an awk array a using the delimiter sep.
set time = 12:34:56
set hr = `echo $time | awk '{split($0,a,":" ); print a[1]}'` # = 12
set sec = `echo $time | awk '{split($0,a,":" ); print a[3]}'` # = 56

# = 12 34 56
set hms = `echo $time | awk '{split($0,a,":" ); print a[1], a[2], a[3]}'`
set hms = `echo $time | awk '{split($0,a,":" ); for (i=1; i=3; i++) print a[i]}'`

實例一：

cat a
a:b:c:d:e:f:g:h:i
使用awk將該字符串冒號兩邊的段輸出
cat a |awk -F':' '{split($0,arr,":")}END{for(i=1;i=NF;i++)printf("%s\n",arr[i])}'
輸出結果如下
a

c
d
e
f
g
h
i
