		<p>
			We have filtered records, modified attribute values, added and removed attributes, dropped a relation… 
			and there is one more operation that we can do with AWK: <code>INSERT</code> resp. appending or preppending additional records to the relation
			– and we can also completely replace the record set by skipping the original records.
		</p>
		
		<h2>Adding records</h2>
		
		<p>
			Using options <code>--before-records</code> and <code>--after-records</code> we can pass additional AWK code that will be executed – once for given relation.
			The <code>record()</code> function will then generate an additional record (can be called multiple times and generate more records):

	options = "relatime";
	dump = 0;
	pass = 2;

	record();

		<h2>Counting and summarizing values</h2>

		<p>We can also compute some statistics like <code>COUNT()</code> and <code>SUM()</code>:</p>
		
		<m:pre jazyk="bash"><![CDATA[find -print0 | relpipe-in-filesystem \
	| relpipe-tr-awk \
		--relation '.*' \
			--before-records 'count = 0; total_size = 0;' \
			--for-each       '{ count++; total_size += size; }' \
			--after-records  'record();' \
			--output-attribute count      integer \
			--output-attribute total_size integer \
	| relpipe-out-tabular]]></m:pre>
	
		<p>and get result:</p>
	
		<pre><![CDATA[filesystem:
 ╭─────────────────┬──────────────────────╮
 │ count (integer) │ total_size (integer) │
 ├─────────────────┼──────────────────────┤
 │               9 │               818747 │
 ╰─────────────────┴──────────────────────╯
Record count: 1]]></pre>

		<p>Where the <code>total_size</code> is the same as will <code>du</code> compute:</p>
		
		<pre>find . -type f -print0 | du -b -c --files0-from=-</pre>

		<p>Analogously we can compute minimum, maximum etc. using AWK transformation.</p>
