echo
command prints on the standard output whatever argument is passed to it.
echo "Hi"
wc
command prints the number of characters, words, and lines out of whatever you type on standard input. Start wc
command, type some text and press Ctrl+d
to end the input:
wc
hi
how are you
[CTRL + d]

echo "Hello, World" | wc
You can also save the results using redirection, in the following way:
echo "Hello, World" | wc > wc_results
