AWK: read values from file1; search for values in file2
I have read another post about this issue and am wondering how to adapt it
to my own, much simpler, issue.
I have a file of user IDs like so:
...etc
I need to take each number and use it to print records wherein the 5th
field matches the user ID pulled from the first file. Naively, I thought success
was a while loop away.
As you can see, the second file contains full records ( tab delimited ) for each user
like so ( sanitized for your pleasure ):
Advice?
Hi All,
as you can see I'm pretty new to this board. :D
I'm struggling around with small script to search a few fields in another file.
Basically I have file1 looking like this:
15:38:28 sz:10001 pr:14.16
15:38:28 sz:10002 pr:18.41
15:38:29 sz:10003 pr:19.28

combine
COMBINE(1)COMBINE(1)NAME
combine - combine sets of lines from two files using boolean operations
SYNOPSIS
combine file1 and file2
combine file1 not file2
combine file1 or file2
combine file1 xor file2
_ file1 and file2 _
_ file1 not file2 _
_ file1 or file2 _
_ file1 xor file2 _
DESCRIPTION
combine combines the lines in two files. Depending on the boolean operation specified, the contents will be combined in different ways:
and Outputs lines that are in file1 if they are also present in file2.
not Outputs lines that are in file1 but not in file2.
or Outputs lines that are in file1 or file2.
xor Outputs lines that are in either file1 or file2, but not in both files.
"-" can be specified for either file to read stdin for that file.
The input files need not be sorted, and the lines are output in the order they occur in file1 (followed by the order they occur in file2
for the two "or" operations). Bear in mind that this means that the operations are not commutative; "a and b" will not necessarily be the
same as "b and a". To obtain commutative behavior sort and uniq the result.
Note that this program can be installed as "_" to allow for the syntactic sugar shown in the latter half of the synopsis (similar to the
test/[ command). It is not currently installed as "_" by default, but you can alias it to that if you like.
