Wow Klashxx!! That code of your was spectacular !!
And thanks for the comprehensive explanation.
I have definitely learnt alot out of this.

Just a couple of question:
1) If the character to be displayed sometimes contain a maximum of 2 characters (number of characters will not exceed 2), how can you modify your code to suit this requirement ?
EG:
0101 AA
0102 B
0103 CD
0104 D
0201 EG
0202 F
0203 G
0204 HH

2) If the coordinates is not displayed in the input file , eg 0202 is not provided here, can you allow your code to print a minus character " - " when this situation arise.

EG:
0101 A
0102 B
0201 C

Expected output:
Code:
02  B  -
01  A  C
   01 02

This way:
Code:
> cat file
0101 A

0301 I
0302 LZ
0303 K
0903 U
1001 M
1002 NX
1610 U
1405 GH
1104 Ñ
1504 F

2005 N
Code:

for ( y in Y)                   #BEGIN First loop:go through Y  
   for ( x in X )               #BEGIN Second loop:for each item of Y go through X 
      if ( x == y  )            #BEGIN if
        {                       #if both  elements of X and Y have the same index ($2+NR in the source file)
        dx=X[x]+0               #Store x value and add 0 to convert it to integer

A final optimization , i notice that associative arrays ar useless here:
Code:
>awk '{
x=substr($1,1,2)+0
y=substr($1,3)+0
if ( x >= max_x )     
    max_x=x             #Is this the maximum x value ?
if ( y >= max_y )
   max_y=y             #Is this the maximum y value ?
f[x,y]=$2
}
END {
# SHOW RESULTS (i ll leave the presentation code for you)        
        
for (y=max_y;y>=1;y--)          #BEGIN coordinate y loop
    {
    printf("%.2d",y)
    for (x=1;x<=max_x;x++)      #BEGIN coordinate x loop
       {
       if ( f[x,y] == "" )      #Coordinates not displayed (null value in array)
           printf("  -")
       else
          printf(" %2s",f[x,y])
       }                        #END coordinate x loop --> Just print in the correct place the item. 
    printf("\n")
    }                           #END coordinate y loop         
printf("   ")
for (x=1;x<=max_x;x++)
   printf("%.2d ",x)
printf("\n")
} ' file

Hi Klashxx,

Thnks !!! It really looks fabulous now .
I think it works now and codes are more concise after the optimisation.

Jus a question, what's the purpose of adding the " +0 " at the end of the codes. Is x and y arrays now ?

x=substr($1,1,2)+0
y=substr($1,3)+0


What if no " +0 " is added ? What will happen ?

You need it to force the conversion of the string that results of the substr function to a integer.
From The AWK Manual - Data Type Summary:

"The awk language defines comparisons as being done numerically if both operands are numeric, or if one is numeric and the other is a numeric string. Otherwise one or both operands are converted to strings and a string comparison is performed"

Remove +0 and look what happens.
