Pig Latin Group By - Shell-Bash

Pig Latin Group By is a Shell-Bash program designed to group words by the first letter of each word in Pig Latin format.

How It Works

The program reads in a file containing a list of words. It then converts each word into Pig Latin format and groups them by their first letter. The output is then written to a file where each line contains a letter followed by the corresponding list of words in Pig Latin format.

Usage

To use Pig Latin Group By, run the following command in your terminal:

./pig_latin_group_by.sh <input_file> <output_file>

Parameters

• input_file: The path to the input file containing the list of words to be grouped.
• output_file: The path to the output file where the results will be written.

Example

Suppose we have a file named words.txt containing the following list of words:

apple
banana
cat
dog
elephant
frog

We can group the words by their first letter in Pig Latin format by running the following command:

./pig_latin_group_by.sh words.txt output.txt

The resulting output would be written to a file named output.txt and would contain the following lines:

a: appleyay
b: ananabay
c: atcay
d: ogday
e: elephantyay
f: ogfray

Conclusion

Pig Latin Group By is a simple yet powerful tool that can be used to group words by their first letter in Pig Latin format. It can be useful for various applications such as sorting large datasets or creating word frequency tables.
