Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers Selecting highest value within a range Post 302740659 by markymarkg123 on Thursday 6th of December 2012 02:27:36 PM

Good start! Thank you. Your code is cool, but it does not select the highest peak (line 5). It picks line 4 because it is the first to exceed 5000. Can it be written to pick line 5 (the biggest) and then to eliminate the line before 5 (line 4) and the line after 5 (line 6)?
