What Is the Windows Equivalent of Linux Command Wc -L

What is the windows equivalent of Linux command wc -l?

Courtesy of Eryk Sun:

Try searching for "", i.e. an empty string; use only backslash as the path separator; and quote the path if it has spaces in it:

find /c /v "" "C:\inputdirectory\P*"

CMD equivalent of linux wc -l command within a call to FFPROBE?

This is untested as I don't have your programs installed. But essentially what you need to do is capture the output of ffprobe with a FOR /F command. You will pipe the output of FFPROBE to the FIND command to get a non empty line count.

FOR /F "delims=" %%G in ('ffprobe -loglevel error -select_streams a -show_entries stream^=codec_type -of csv^=p^=0 input.mov ^| find /v /c ""') do set "count=%%G"

You can then use the variable %count% with your FFMPEG command.

Do you know a similar program for wc (unix word count command) on Windows?

You can use the original "wc", built for windows: it is part of the coreutils package. Get the most recent coreutils exe.

Count the number of lines in a file using python and wc -l

You're trying to count the number of lines in a file? Why can't you do that in pure python?

Something like this?

with open('C:/Users/Kyle/Documents/final/VocabCorpus.txt') as f:
    row = len(f.readlines())

Windows equivalent to find files accessed in the last 90 days

You can do this using Powershell, which is usually installed by default with most modern versions of windows (or is easily installed if not already installed), by way of the get-childitem command.

To find files in c:\data that are named *.sas and have been accessed in the past 90 days:

get-childitem c:\data\*.sas | ? { $_.lastaccesstime -ge (get-date).AddDays(-90)}

To get a count of the number of files in c:\data that are named *.sas and have been accessed in the past 90 days:

(get-childitem c:\data\*.sas | ? { $_.lastaccesstime -ge (get-date).AddDays(-90)}).count

Executing line counting bash command (wc -l) inside a c++ program

One way you can get the number of lines in a file is by using getline:

#include <fstream>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
    fstream in("file.d");
    int lines = 0;
    string s;
    while (getline(in, s))
    {
        ++lines;
    }
    cout << lines << endl;
    return 0;
}

EDIT...

A more efficient way (if you only want the count and don't want to use any of the data) is to use istream::ignore, as pointed out by Matteo Italia.

#include <fstream>
#include <iostream>
#include <limits>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
    fstream in("in.txt");
    int lines = 0;
    char endline_char = '\n';
    while (in.ignore(numeric_limits<streamsize>::max(), in.widen(endline_char)))
    {
        ++lines;
    }
    cout << lines << endl;
    return 0;
}

Either way will output the number of lines in a file called "file.d". You can compare its output to that of 'wc -l'.

Count the number of characters, words and lines in PowerShell

Get-Content [FILENAME] | Measure-Object -Character

It counts the number of characters in the file.

Get-Content [FILENAME] | Measure-Object -Word

It counts the number of words in the file.

Get-Content [FILENAME] | Measure-Object -Line

It counts the number of lines in the file.

Windows equivalent for Unix find command to search multiple file types

This will locate all files with the given extensions in the current working directory and all subdirectories:

dir *.cpp *.h *.java /b/s
