The WC Tool is a command-line utility implemented in Python that provides functionality similar to the wc command in Unix-like systems. It allows you to count the number of lines, words, and characters in a given file.
To use the WC Tool, you need to have Python installed on your system. You can download and install Python from the official Python website.
To use the WC Tool, open a terminal and navigate to the directory where the wc.py file is located. Then, run the following command:
python wc.py <filename>
Replace <filename> with the path to the file you want to analyze. The WC Tool will then display the number of lines, words, and characters in the specified file.
Let's say you have a file named example.txt that contains the following text:
Hello, world!
This is an example file.
To count the number of lines, words, and characters in this file using the WC Tool, run the following command:
python wc.py example.txt
The output will be:
Lines: 2
Words: 7
Characters: 38
