The 'wc' command counts the number of lines, words or bytes in a file.

- Count lines (-l) in a file:
wc -l path/to/file

- Count words (-w) in a file:
wc -w path/to/file

- Count bytes in a file:
wc -c path/to/file

- Count characters (-m) in a file, taking multi-byte characters into account:
wc -m path/to/file

- Count lines, words, and bytes in a file:
wc path/to/file

- Count lines, words, and bytes from stdin:
cat path/to/file | wc
NOTE This is NOT a "useless use of cat" since the output is slightly different than 'wc file'.

- Get character length of the longest line in a file:
wc -L path/to/file
