Rows

A row is equivalent to a record, line, or tuple in the input file; a row is made up of fields. An example of a row is an employee record; examples of fields include employee_id, last_name, first_name, and so on.

Every region can have one or more rows. (A region cannot be empty.)

Rows in a fixed-width region have the same width as the region itself; fields within a row are defined by a fixed number of columns. In a fixed-width region, you can

  • Explicitly specify the fields within a row
  • Adjust the size of the fields you specify

See Working with Fields for more information.

In a line-oriented region, fields are separated by a separator character or string. You can specify the separator character if needed.
