Thanks for the response. I have a question. How are you reading in the files that do not have the .enr extension?

Apologies for being unclear. Im trying compare values between files and if they match I want to extract some characters in between those values for many files. They are in two directories and have...

I have many files that can have various amounts of rows. I essentially want to output each row into a new file if a pattern is matched between two files.

I have some code that does something...

Thanks these worked. In the case that I have many input rows how can I generate an output for each row with the appropriate matches?

could you please explain

for file in *file; do
awk '{s = FNR==1 ? "\"""name""\"" : "\""FILENAME"\"" ; print s,$0}' OFS=',' $file >"New_$file"
done

Im trying compare values between files and if they match I want to extract some characters in between those values for many files. They are in two directories and have the name filename but one ends...

I have a bunch of files with unique names. Inside each file are either 1 or more than 1 rows. I would like the name of the file to appear inside the file itself, once per row (except for the first...

I have a file that has two columns. I first column is an identifier and the second is a column of strings. I want to split the characters in the second column into substrings of length 5. So if the...

If there are for example 5 occurrences, then it should be like this:


1) last substring of line 5 with beginning substring of line 5
2) last substring of line 5 with beginning substring of line...

Here's a sample input for an example of 3 occurrences. I want to generate specific combinations of a 9 character substring based on the last occurrence of the ID %dog (line 3) with the beginning...

after the ID is a tab space. The string field varies in length, but the parts that should be joined should just be 9 character substrings from either the beginning or the end. In total, each output...

hi spacebar, the rules you wrote out are correct. I should just mention that the file only has two columns (ID and string column). I made the last segments of the strings capital letters for clarity...

I posted this a few days ago and got some help (Putting together substrings if pattern is matched - Page 2 | Unix Linux Forums | Shell Programming and Scripting...

Assuming we have say 4 occurrences of the same ID and want to combine the end of ID 4 with the beginning of ID4, the beginning of ID 3, and the beginning of ID 2, but not with the beginning of ID1....

Precisely Don. The file has already been sorted by the columns you mentioned. Sorting isn't really the issue here though. The issue is finding the median for all strings in col1 that share an ID,...

Hi Corona, I have sorted by a different column and would like to find the median as a function of another sort. That's why I don't need to necessarily sort col 3.

I am trying to calculate the median of a column of numbers if they match an ID type on a different column. The input file has 3 columns. The column that has the ID is column 1 and the column with the...

An example for single occurrence looks like this.
input:

%TESGO
dfkjsdfgogogocatcatdogtwelvetwentygogogo


output:

%TESGO
ntygogogodfkjsdfgo



for a triple occurrence (or even an...

Your solution is actually what I was looking for, expect that for single occurring %ID's are as long as the input. So something like this would be the same in the output as in the input.

Scrutinizer, yours seems to work only when there are multiple occurrences of the string ID and not in events when the string ID exists only once. It should still perform the same for those situations.

This is not homework actually. It's just an annoying problem I've run into and can't figure out. What I have tried is the following but it is no where near useful in my opinion.


cat file |...

What I would like to do is if the lines with % have the same name, then combine the last 9 letters of the string underneath the last occurrence of that ID with the first 9 letters of the string...

that doesn't work either. I get 0's for the string frequency column. It does, however, count the occurrence of the ID.

Scrutinizer, I am trying to incorporate your code from #3 in a while loop but I need awk to use the substrings from file1 to search for a match in file2 and to count it based on the info from file2....

so I am trying to do something like this but what goes into say 1.out should not be the same output that goes into 2.out. Each out file should be the output of a single line from the while loop (but...
