No, it does not. It may give you the correct result with this particular dataset and your particular sort implementation, but it is definitely not a correct solution.
Hello -
I've serached the web but can't find much on array script variables (except that C-shell variables are arrays!)
I'm trying to form a 2-D string array: (this is what I want, but in java)
String list = { {"one", "two"}, {"three"} };
I know this is a 1-D string array shell... (4 Replies)
So, I'm fooling around with multi demtional arrays, and I made this in a short amount of time:
#include <stdio.h>
main(int argc, char *argv) {
char blah = {
{'a', 'b'},
{'b', 'a'}
};
int i = 0;
while (i < 2) {
if (argv == blah)
printf("%c\n", blah);
i++;
}
}
The goal... (3 Replies)
Hi.
I am reasonably new to awk, but have done quite a lot of unix scripting in the past. I have resolved the issues below with unix scripting but it runs like a dog. Moved to awk for speed and functionality but running up a big learning curve in a hurry, so hope there is some help here.

I have an array of names. Each one of the name, has a number represented to it.
For example A has an ID 8, B has an ID 2.
What I am after is a for loop that when the array is in position 1, a particular variable is set to the value of position 1 in array 2
declare -a arr=("A" "B" "C"... (6 Replies)
Hi, I'm developing a script which contains a multi dimensional array, however for some reason the array is not iterating.
When executing the script, services are listed as arguments from argument 2. Ex voice data sms.

sort
SORT(1) User Commands SORT(1)NAME
sort - sort lines of text files
SYNOPSIS
sort [OPTION]... [FILE]...
DESCRIPTION
Write sorted concatenation of all FILE(s) to standard output.
Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too. Ordering options:
-b, --ignore-leading-blanks
ignore leading blanks
-d, --dictionary-order
consider only blanks and alphanumeric characters
-f, --ignore-case
fold lower case to upper case characters
-g, --general-numeric-sort
compare according to general numerical value
-i, --ignore-nonprinting
consider only printable characters
-M, --month-sort
compare (unknown) < `JAN' < ... < `DEC'
-n, --numeric-sort
compare according to string numerical value
-r, --reverse
reverse the result of comparisons
Other options:
-c, --check
check whether input is sorted; do not sort
-k, --key=POS1[,POS2]
start a key at POS1, end it at POS2 (origin 1)
-m, --merge
merge already sorted files; do not sort
-o, --output=FILE
write result to FILE instead of standard output
-s, --stable
stabilize sort by disabling last-resort comparison
-S, --buffer-size=SIZE
use SIZE for main memory buffer
-t, --field-separator=SEP
use SEP instead of non-blank to blank transition
-T, --temporary-directory=DIR
use DIR for temporaries, not $TMPDIR or /tmp; multiple options specify multiple directories
-u, --unique
with -c, check for strict ordering; without -c, output only the first of an equal run
-z, --zero-terminated
end lines with 0 byte, not newline
--help display this help and exit
--version
output version information and exit
POS is F[.C][OPTS], where F is the field number and C the character position in the field. OPTS is one or more single-letter ordering
options, which override global ordering options for that key. If no key is given, use the entire line as the key.
SIZE may be followed by the following multiplicative suffixes: % 1% of memory, b 1, K 1024 (default), and so on for M, G, T, P, E, Z, Y.
With no FILE, or when FILE is -, read standard input.
*** WARNING *** The locale specified by the environment affects sort order. Set LC_ALL=C to get the traditional sort order that uses
native byte values.
