I am beginner, and would like to know the following
* Does the command read the files one by one, or does it read it simultaneously?
one by one

As the comments outlined, the condition 'FNR==NR' is true only when reading the FIRST file

which command? ' '$1 == arr[FNR]'? If the condition is true and there's no
associated 'action', the default action is 'print $0'.

For example, it has 5000 records with first field value 2, 3000 records with first field value 3, 1200 records with first field 7 and so on.
What is the question?

Code:
awk 'FNR==NR {f1[$1];next} !($1 in f1)' opnoise opwflightno > opwono

Hi!
Let's say I would like to convert "1", "2", "3" to "a", "b", "c" respectively. But if a record contains other number then return "X".
input:
1
2
3
4
output:
a
b
c
X
What is the syntax for:
if(array doesn't contain a particular index){
then print the value "X" instead} (12 Replies)
Can you search AWK array elements and return each index value for that element.
For example an array named car would have index make and element engine. I want to return all makes with engine size 1.6.
Array woulld look like this:
BMW 1.6
BMW 2.0
BMW 2.5
AUDI 1.8
AUDI 1.6

I am trying to reformat the table by filling any missing rows. The final table will have consecutive IDs in the first column. My problem is the index of the associate array in the awk script.

shell-quote
SHELL-QUOTE(1p) User Contributed Perl Documentation SHELL-QUOTE(1p)NAME
shell-quote - quote arguments for safe use, unmodified in a shell command
SYNOPSIS
shell-quote [switch]... arg...
DESCRIPTION
shell-quote lets you pass arbitrary strings through the shell so that they won't be changed by the shell. This lets you process commands
or files with embedded white space or shell globbing characters safely. Here are a few examples.
EXAMPLES
ssh preserving args
When running a remote command with ssh, ssh doesn't preserve the separate arguments it receives. It just joins them with spaces and
passes them to "$SHELL -c". This doesn't work as intended:
ssh host touch 'hi there' # fails
It creates 2 files, hi and there. Instead, do this:
cmd=`shell-quote touch 'hi there'`
ssh host "$cmd"
This gives you just 1 file, hi there.
process find output
It's not ordinarily possible to process an arbitrary list of files output by find with a shell script. Anything you put in $IFS to
split up the output could legitimately be in a file's name. Here's how you can do it using shell-quote:
eval set -- `find -type f -print0 | xargs -0 shell-quote --`
debug shell scripts
shell-quote is better than echo for debugging shell scripts.
debug() {
[ -z "$debug" ] || shell-quote "debug:" "$@"
}
With echo you can't tell the difference between "debug 'foo bar'" and "debug foo bar", but with shell-quote you can.
save a command for later
shell-quote can be used to build up a shell command to run later. Say you want the user to be able to give you switches for a command
you're going to run. If you don't want the switches to be re-evaluated by the shell (which is usually a good idea, else there are
things the user can't pass through), you can do something like this:
user_switches=
while [ $# != 0 ]
do
case x$1 in
x--pass-through)
[ $# -gt 1 ] || die "need an argument for $1"
user_switches="$user_switches "`shell-quote -- "$2"`
shift;;
# process other switches
esac
shift
done
# later
eval "shell-quote some-command $user_switches my args"
OPTIONS --debug
Turn debugging on.
--help
Show the usage message and die.
--version
Show the version number and exit.
