My understanding was that by using -nrk2,1 the fields would be sorted (reverse) numerically by field 2, then by field 1 (presumably alphabetically - which was wrong).
If you try
Then that's OK (numerically), but the rest (-nrk2,1) doesn't sort the first field after that as I thought.
Sort is a powerful command if you can master it - something I have neither the time nor inclination to do!
Given that the records are sorted reverse numerically in field 2 with "sort -nrk2"...
the awk says:
if I don't have a color (where $1 = purple, or whatever) in my array (C[purple]), then define something (anything) for purple (C[$1]=1) so that I do, and then print the line. If I do have something already defined, then do nothing (thus printing only the first line with each (sorted) color).
