Please help me with this problem if you have a solution.
I have two files: <file1> : In each line, first word is an Id and then other words that belong to this Id
<file2> : same as file1, but can have extra lds and also same Ids with different words belonging to that Id
I need an output file which checks for all the Ids of file2 in file1 and if matches, it checks for the associated words and prints only the matched words (order doesn’t matter). If the Id of file2 does not exist in file1 or do not match with any of its words, then print only the Id.
<file3>
I’ll be really thankful to you for your help.
