Hi I have the following awk program

Problem is that I don't know why it complains "awk: –f awk: ^ invalid char '�' in expression" when I do awk -f pdf.awk aodv1.tr

Anyone of you out there who are brighter than me in this area? =)

BEGIN {
   recvdSize = 0
   startTime = 400
   stopTime = 0
}

{
         event = $1
         time = $265.01
         node_id = $29
         pkt_size = $8
         level = $4



if (level == "AGT" && event == "s" && pkt_size >= 512) {
if (time < startTime) {
         startTime = time
         }
   }


  if (level == "AGT" && event == "r" && pkt_size >= 512) {
   if (time > stopTime) {
         stopTime = time
         }



   hdr_size = pkt_size % 512
   pkt_size -= hdr_size


   recvdSize += pkt_size
   }
   }

  END {
   printf("Average Throughput[kbps] = %.2f\t\t StartTime=%.2f\tStopTime=%.2f\n",(recvdSize/(stopTime-startTime))*(8/1000),startTime,stopTime)

}

Didn't the error message tell you a line number? Anyway, I'd take a close look at the line that contains

time = $265.01

if I were you!
