integers, floats and text
I am using gawk in a dos shell in windows xp and want to read a datafile and reformat it.
The datafile consists of columns of integers, floating point numbers and text strings. Each column is a fixed width and each column contains the same data type, eg all integers, all text. I am looking for a way to read each field ($1,$2 etc) and determine if it is integer, floating point or text. I then want to write it to another file in a new format, somthing like: if ($1 is integer) printf %5.0f",$1 elseif ($1 is floating point) printf "%5.2f", $1 elseif ($1 is text) printf "%5s",$1 All I need is what goes in the brackets - if that is possible. Thanks |
