[BASH] Get person's age based from date of birth from .csv file
| Hey guys, I've been lurking here for the past few days and have been helped massively by the posts here. So, firstly, a huge thank you for that. However, I'm stuck on a particular problem and require some 1 -to-1 assistance. I have a file called details.csv which holds 3 basic details about a person: their age, phone number and date of birth (in dd/mm/yyyy format). These details are entered via the standard input: read -p "Name: " name read -p "Number: " number etc and then placed in the details.csv. details.csv in then sorted into date-of-birth order. So, say I have the following information in the csv file. fred,999,03/04/2005 jane,888,01/01/1993 james,3456,12/01/1987 john,1234,11/08/1955 How can I get and display the age of all four people based on today's date? Thank you for your time. |
