Dear Team

Can you tell me, why I see this with grep –c on a file with following content?

$ cat file_13.txt

1

2

3

4

5

6

7

8

9

10

11

12

13

$ grep -c 1 file_13.txt

5

Should it not show 6? When search for value 2, it is correct…

$ grep -c 3 file_13.txt

2

$ file file_13.txt

file_13.txt: ASCII text

Thank you

Alexander Grubner
