[SOLVED] average number of hosts that respond to pings during a traceroute

Hi,

I am a new learner. I need a simple scripts that compute the average ping time for hosts, and the average number of hosts that respond to pings during a traceroute.

I have finished the ping part but I confused how to start the traceroute part

Code:

#!/bin/bash
#!/bin/sh

txt=$*
count=0;
for host in $txt; do
echo $host
echo $( ping -c 3 $host | grep avg | sed 's@.*=@ rrt ave =@' | sed -r 's@ = [^/]+/([^/]+).*@= \1 ms@')
done;

Can anyone help me where I need to start?

Thanks,

icy

Perhaps you may get more help by having this put into a more relevant part of the forum.
