awk command to map ASCII char to hex code not working

 If you want to map ASCII characters to their hexadecimal values using the `awk` command, you can do so using the `printf` function. Here's an example:


```bash

echo "Hello, World!" | awk '{

  for (i = 1; i <= length; i++) {

    char = substr($0, i, 1)

    printf "Character: %s, Hex: 0x%02x\n", char, char

  }

}'

```


In this example, the `awk` script processes each character in the input string and prints the character along with its hexadecimal value using the `printf` function.


Make sure that you are providing the correct input data and that your `awk` command is properly formatted for your specific use case. If you encounter issues, please provide more details, and I can help you further.
