UNIX; Compare two files
Hi Guys,
Requirement: Want to compare two files, if the the content of both files is same then show "Good result" else Show "Bad Result"[/B][/B]
I am using the following logic
if( cmp -s a b = 0 )
then
echo "Good result"
else echo "Bad result"
exit 0
fi
But this is not working. FYI, the content of file is as shown below
Content of file a
0 TOTALS 8,325 17,887,904 13,907 163,243,465 1,306,821,707 10.9 %
Of file b
0 TOTALS 8,325 10,000,904 13,907 163,243,465 1,306,821,707 10.9 %
Since the 4th values in b is differnt so that output of If statement should be "Bad result"
It will be really great if someone can help me out with this.
Thanks,

LEARN ABOUT PHP
mysql_free_result
MYSQL_FREE_RESULT(3) 1 MYSQL_FREE_RESULT(3)
mysql_free_result - Free result memory
SYNOPSIS
Warning
This extension is deprecated as of PHP 5.5.0, and will be removed in the future. Instead, the MySQLi or PDO_MySQL extension should
be used. See also MySQL: choosing an API guide and related FAQ for more information. Alternatives to this function include:
omysqli_free_result(3)
oAssign the value of
NULL to the PDO object, or PDOStatement::closeCursor
bool mysql_free_result (resource $result)
DESCRIPTION
mysql_free_result(3) will free all memory associated with the result identifier $result.
mysql_free_result(3) only needs to be called if you are concerned about how much memory is being used for queries that return large result
sets. All associated result memory is automatically freed at the end of the script's execution.
o $
result -The result resource that is being evaluated. This result comes from a call to mysql_query(3).
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
If a non-resource is used for the $result, an error of level E_WARNING will be emitted. It's worth noting that mysql_query(3) only returns
a resource for SELECT, SHOW, EXPLAIN, and DESCRIBE queries.
Example #1
A mysql_free_result(3) example
<?php
$result = mysql_query("SELECT id,email FROM people WHERE id = '42'");
if (!$result) {
echo 'Could not run query: ' . mysql_error();
exit;
}
/* Use the result, assuming we're done with it afterwards */
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
/* Now we free up the result and continue on with our script */
mysql_free_result($result);
echo $row['id'];
echo $row['email'];
?>
Note
For backward compatibility, the following deprecated alias may be used: mysql_freeresult(3)
mysql_query(3), is_resource(3).
