Question
Display all of the lines in the file that contain "Raspberry" followed later in the line
by the letter "a".
File name = inventory

I have no idea how I could possibly do it so I'm wondering if someone with more experience might be able to enlighten me.
I've tried:
grep "Rasberry.*a" inventory
grep "Rasberry a" inventory
grep "Rasberry.* a" inventory
grep "Rasberry a" inventory
None of these work, the only file in 'inventory' that matches the description is 'Raspberry Jam,1216,194' so I'm hoping someone could help me ;x Thanks.

This worked for my data file...

grep "Raspberry.*[a]" inventory

Grrr, someone beat me to it :-(

Perhaps if you correctly spelt "Raspberry" ?.

Wow... uhm >.> Thank you good sir. I didn't sleep at all last night so these kind of things are slipping by me... Ya that was the issue, thanks everyone for your help, I'm retarded.

And to mr Weaver and Edwards: using a character class for
an individual character is pointless. ;}

I didn't test his previous examples, but earlier in the day I had done similar with a range *shrugs* I would tend to argue that it occasionally helps readability while not a functional addition.
