## A real-world example
161+
162+
Let's use `script` to write a program which system administrators might actually need. One thing I often find myself doing is counting the most frequent visitors to a website over a given period of time. Given an Apache log in the Common Log Format like this:
163+
164+
```

166+
```
167+
168+
we would like to extract the visitor's IP address (the first column in the logfile), and count the number of times this IP address occurs in the file. Finally, we might like to list the top 10 visitors by frequency. In a shell script we might do something like:
169+
170+
```sh
171+
cut -d' ' -f 1 access.log |sort |uniq -c |sort -rn |head
172+
```
173+
174+
There's a lot going on there, and it's pleasing to find that the equivalent `script` program is quite brief:
175+
176+
```go
177+
package main
178+
179+
import (
180+
"github.com/bitfield/script"
181+
)
182+
183+
func main() {
184+
script.Stdin().Column(1).Freq().First(10).Stdout()
185+
}
186+
```
187+
188+
(Thanks to Lucas Bremgartner for suggesting this example. You can find the complete [program](examples/visitors/main.go), along with a sample [logfile](examples/visitors/access.log), in the [`examples/visitors/`](examples/visitors) directory.)
