How to work with two files with awk
I have two files:
The number of lines in both files are always same.
I could get these specific lines from a huge data file, but what I want to do now is take first line of file1 which is 1 and print first line of file2 which is 'a' one time, similarly letter 'b' from file2 corresponding to file1 2 times and so on. Any suggestions or hints?.
awk 'NR==1' file1 | print $1== ---not sure here
Any help?.
file1:
1
2
3
4
5
6
file2:
a
b
c
d
e
f

Hi. I've been playing around a bit. This isn't for any practical purpose-- it's really just a theoretical exercise. I wrote this little thing:
foreach num ( 6 5 4 )
awk -v "number=$num" 'BEGIN{for(x=0;x<$number;x++) printf "-"; printf "\n"}'
end
I would expect the following output:

So, I have an awk statement that does a little filtering and formats the output conveniently. Here's what I had originally:
<input> | awk -F "\t" 'BEGIN{OFS=","} {sub(" ","_",$2)} (NR == 1) || (substr($2,9,2) >= 19 && substr($2,1,7) == "2011-02") {print}'

JOIN(1) General Commands Manual JOIN(1)
NAME
join - relational database operator
SYNOPSIS
join [-an] [-e s] [-o list] [-tc] file1 file2
DESCRIPTION
Join forms, on the standard output, a join of the two relations specified by the lines of file1 and file2. If file1 is `-', the standard
input is used.
File1 and file2 must be sorted in increasing ASCII collating sequence on the fields on which they are to be joined, normally the first in
each line.
There is one line in the output for each pair of lines in file1 and file2 that have identical join fields. The output line normally con-
sists of the common field, then the rest of the line from file1, then the rest of the line from file2.
Fields are normally separated by blank, tab or newline. In this case, multiple separators count as one, and leading separators are dis-
carded.
These options are recognized:
-an In addition to the normal output, produce a line for each unpairable line in file n, where n is 1 or 2.
-e s Replace empty output fields by string s.
-o list
Each output line comprises the fields specified in list, each element of which has the form n.m, where n is a file number and m is a
field number.
-tc Use character c as a separator (tab character). Every appearance of c in a line is significant.
SEE ALSO
sort(1), comm(1), awk(1).
BUGS
With default field separation, the collating sequence is that of sort -b; with -t, the sequence is that of a plain sort.
The conventions of join, sort, comm, uniq, look and awk(1) are wildly incongruous.
