I have to read the first line from both the files and
check if the dates (first 8 characters) are same in both the files
if same then i will proceed the fetching of other values.
If dates are not same then quit that record.
Move to second line in both the files and do the process again.

Description
The makes an inverted index to the named databases (or files) for use by and These files contain bibliographic references (or other kinds
of information) separated by blank lines.
A bibliographic reference is a set of lines, constituting fields of bibliographic information. Each field starts on a line beginning with
a ``%'', followed by a key-letter, then a blank, and finally the contents of the field, which may continue until the next line starting
with ``%''.
The command is a shell script that calls and The first program, truncates words to 6 characters, and maps upper case to lower case. It
also discards words shorter than 3 characters, words among the 100 most common English words, and numbers (dates) < 1900 or > 2000. These
parameters can be changed. The second program, inv, creates an entry file (.ia), a posting file (.ib), and a tag file (.ic), all in the
working directory.
The command uses an inverted index made by to find sets of bibliographic references. It reads keywords typed after the ``>'' prompt on the
terminal, and retrieves records containing all these keywords. If nothing matches, nothing is returned except another ``>'' prompt.

pler to use, but the .ig file is slower to use than the .i[abc] files, and does not allow the use of multiple reference files.
