Edited: compare two files and print mismatch
Using unix shell script, how to compare two files and print lines with mismatch? Below are the requirements:
1. The number of lines on the two files is not the same.
2. The difference/mismatch can be found on the second or third column.
3. The comparison is not between line 1 of file 1 and line 1 of file 2. Rather, the comparison is on line 1 of file 1 and the line on file 2 that has the same first word on the line 1 of file 1.
To demonstrate:
FILE 1:
abc 123 678
def 456 901
ghi 789 234
jkl 012 567
mno 345 890
FILE 2:
def 456 901
abc 124 678
mno 345 890
ghi 789 244
OUTPUT FILE:
"from file 1"
abc 123 678
ghi 789 234
"from file 2"
abc 124 678
ghi 789 244
i hope someone can help me with this. Thanks!
