Converting Column values to comma delimted single Row
I have a requirement in which i have to read a file which has multiple columns seperated by a pipe "|" from this i have to read each column values seperately and create a comma seperated row for the column and write to another file.
eg:
Input file:
ColA ColB
1 2
2 x
3 y
4 c
5 q
from this i have to create two filles, each having data as
file_colA:
1,2,3,4,5
file_colB:
2,x,y,c,q
i have created shell script using a for loop, which may take long time when i implement it in prod.
can any one suggest an approach using awk or sed?
thanks
