Hi Runzhi, Yes, you can use a number of scripts to get the job done, including more than one awk script, if you wish. You then put all the scripts for the two programs, plus the .git repo for the assignment, in the single zip'd/tar'd directory. Re: information in the awk script, sure, if it relates to the script.
