Haha Glasnost

So finishing up some lest over work from last Spring, I've been writing one of my first shell scripts to do some data analysis for me. It's been really fun and I've learned a lot. Defiantly better than counting results manually. lolz

Anyway, so I was having the problem that I had 6 tests show up positive for traffic shaping, and when I was going into more detailed analysis I realized that I was actually dealing with 7 records. So I was quite frustrated. How could I be counting 6 results and then somehow have 7?

After a little "#!/bin/bash -x" and 20 minutes later (picture enclosed) I realized that one result file could yield up to three different types of positives. Ahhh.... Sweet, sweet Eureka!
