How would I, for example, extract the gender out of a certain person
Probably with a painful operation Smilie

maybe based on the year of birth
You want to "extract" the gender based on the person or the year of birth, or both?

Using , as a field separator, based on your input, the name would be in $1, the year of birth in $2, etc.

Code:
$2 == 1940 { print $3 }
$2 == 1940 { print $1, $3 }
$1 == "Bruce Lee" { print $3 }
$1 == "Bruce Lee" && $2 == 1940 { print $3 }

Not such a painful operation Smilie

NAME
clags2.f - SYNOPSIS
Functions/Subroutines subroutine clags2 (UPPER, A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, B3, CSU, SNU, CSV, SNV, CSQ, SNQ) CLAGS2 Function/Subroutine Documentation subroutine clags2 (logicalUPPER, realA1, complexA2, realA3, realB1, complexB2, realB3, realCSU, complexSNU, realCSV, complexSNV, realCSQ, complexSNQ) CLAGS2 Purpose: CLAGS2 computes 2-by-2 unitary matrices U, V and Q, such that if ( UPPER ) then U**H *A*Q = U**H *( A1 A2 )*Q = ( x 0 ) ( 0 A3 ) ( x x ) and V**H*B*Q = V**H *( B1 B2 )*Q = ( x 0 ) ( 0 B3 ) ( x x ) or if ( .NOT.UPPER ) then U**H *A*Q = U**H *( A1 0 )*Q = ( x x ) ( A2 A3 ) ( 0 x ) and V**H *B*Q = V**H *( B1 0 )*Q = ( x x ) ( B2 B3 ) ( 0 x ) where U = ( CSU SNU ), V = ( CSV SNV ), ( -SNU**H CSU ) ( -SNV**H CSV ) Q = ( CSQ SNQ ) ( -SNQ**H CSQ ) The rows of the transformed A and B are parallel. Moreover, if the input 2-by-2 matrix A is not zero, then the transformed (1,1) entry of A is not zero. If the input matrices A and B are both not zero, then the transformed (2,2) element of B is not zero, except when the first rows of input A and B are parallel and the second rows are zero. Parameters: UPPER UPPER is LOGICAL = .TRUE.: the input matrices A and B are upper triangular. = .FALSE.: the input matrices A and B are lower triangular. A1 A1 is REAL A2 A2 is COMPLEX A3 A3 is REAL On entry, A1, A2 and A3 are elements of the input 2-by-2 upper (lower) triangular matrix A. B1 B1 is REAL B2 B2 is COMPLEX B3 B3 is REAL On entry, B1, B2 and B3 are elements of the input 2-by-2 upper (lower) triangular matrix B. CSU CSU is REAL SNU SNU is COMPLEX The desired unitary matrix U. CSV CSV is REAL SNV SNV is COMPLEX The desired unitary matrix V. CSQ CSQ is REAL SNQ SNQ is COMPLEX The desired unitary matrix Q.
