Example code from the web:

input_lines = LOAD '/tmp/word.txt' AS (line:chararray);
words = FOREACH input_lines GENERATE FLATTEN(TOKENIZE(line)) AS word;
filtered_words = FILTER words BY word MATCHES '\\w+';
word_groups = GROUP filtered_words BY word;
word_count = FOREACH word_groups GENERATE COUNT(filtered_words) AS count, group AS word;
ordered_word_count = ORDER word_count BY count DESC;
STORE ordered_word_count INTO '/tmp/results.txt';

Example code from Linguist:

/**
 * sample.pig
 */

REGISTER $SOME_JAR;

A = LOAD 'person' USING PigStorage() AS (name:chararray, age:int); -- Load person
B = FOREACH A generate name;
DUMP B;

Example code from Wikipedia:

input_lines = LOAD '/tmp/my-copy-of-all-pages-on-internet' AS (line:chararray);
 
 -- Extract words from each line and put them into a pig bag
 -- datatype, then flatten the bag to get one word on each row
 words = FOREACH input_lines GENERATE FLATTEN(TOKENIZE(line)) AS word;
 
 -- filter out any words that are just white spaces
 filtered_words = FILTER words BY word MATCHES '\\w+';
 
 -- create a group for each word
 word_groups = GROUP filtered_words BY word;
 
 -- count the entries in each group
 word_count = FOREACH word_groups GENERATE COUNT(filtered_words) AS count, group AS word;
 
 -- order the records by count
 ordered_word_count = ORDER word_count BY count DESC;
 STORE ordered_word_count INTO '/tmp/number-of-words-on-internet';
