$I_FILE="ifile";
where ifile looks like this
4294967295,0,3,2103159,54668771,54668771,0,1,566547,8770,0,384,228,18,12
4294967295,0,4,2103160,54668772,54668772,0,1,566548,8770,0,384,228,18,12
4294967295,1,0,2103161,54668773,54668773,0,3,566549,8770,0,384,228,18,12
4294967295,2,0,2103162,54668774,54668774,0,5,566550,8770,0,384,228,18,12

I need to filter out the first and the ninth column:
4294967295 566547
4294967295 566548
4294967295 566549
4294967295 566550

hence:
system ("awk -F, '{print \$1, \$9}' \$I_FILE | sed '\/^\$\/d' > O_FILE")

I dont *have* to use awk/sed. If there is a simpler way with Perl, that would work too.
Thanks!

numsum - numsum program file SYNOPSIS
numsum [-iIcdhrsvxy] <FILE> | numsum [-iIcdhrsvxy] (Input on STDIN from pipeline.) numsum [-iIcdhrsvxy] (Input on STDIN. Use Ctrl-D to stop.) DESCRIPTION
numsum will take all the numbers on stdin and return the sum of those numbers. Currently it only processes the first number on each line. Besides positive numbers, it also handles negative numbers and numbers with decimals. OPTIONS
-i Only return the integer portion of the final sum. -I Only return the decimal portion of the final sum. -c Print out the sum of each column. -r Print out the sum of each row. -x <n> Specify a comma seperated list of columns to print. -y <n> Specify a comma seperated list of rows to print. -s <string> Specify a string to use as a seperator for columns. This defaults to be consecutive whitespace (s+). -h Help: You're looking at it. -V Increase verbosity. -d Debug mode. For developers -q Quiet mode, don't print any warnings. EXAMPLES
Simply add up the numbers in a file. $ numsum numbers.txt 4315 Enter your own numbers on STDIN. The last number is the answer. $ numsum 4 21 98 100 223 Use it in a command pipeline. $ ls -1s | grep .mp3 | numsum -c -x 5 72288 Add up the total byte count in a http log file. $ cat access_log | awk {'print $10'} numsum or numsum -c -x 10 access_log Add up the columns of numbers of a file. $ cat columns 1 6 11 16 21 2 7 12 17 22 3 8 13 18 23 4 9 14 19 24 5 10 15 20 25 $ numsum -c columns 15 40 65 90 115 Add up the 1st, 2nd and 5th columns only. $ numsum -c -x 1,2,5 columns 15 40 115 Add up the rows of numbers of a file. $ numsum -r columns 55 60 65 70 75 Add up the 2nd and 4th rows. $ numsum -r -y 2,4 columns 60 70 SEE ALSO
