This is UNIX question asked in DataStage Interview.
Say I have n numbers of records in a text file.
I want first 3 records in 1st file, last three records in 3rd file and remaining n-6 records in 2nd file.
(Note: we don't know how many records are there in the File. I am getting one file on daily basis and I want three target files as asked above)

Answer Posted / reddy

First check the filename how many records are there
wc -l finename
it will give count

then first check the filename if it has header and footer

If not use below unix commands

when we use wc -l filename, it will give count, for example we have 1000 records

Ans1: Head -3 filename.txt >Target1.txt
Ans2: Tail -3 filename.txt >Target3.txt
Ans3: sed -n '4,997p' filename >Target2.txt

Please correct me if i am wrong....
