-In this sequel to his previous intro to awk, Daniel Robbins continues to explore
-awk, a great language with a strange name. Daniel will show you how to handle
-multi-line records, use looping constructs, and create and use awk arrays. By
-the end of this article, you'll be well versed in a wide range of awk features,
-and you'll be ready to write your own powerful awk scripts.
+In this conclusion to the awk series, Daniel introduces you to awk's important
+string functions, and then shows you how to write a complete
+checkbook-balancing program from scratch. Along the way, you'll learn how to
+write your own functions and use awk's multidimensional arrays. By the end of
+this article, you'll have even more awk experience, allowing you to create more
+powerful scripts.
