Korn Shell Array maximum value less than other value
I have a text file with several key words that I am trying to isolate. I have grepped for the unknowns in the text file, but each unknown has a corresponding location. I have created an array that holds all the unknowns and another array that holds all of the locations and compares them based on the line number in the report. the locations are always before the unknowns, so I compare positions in the array to check that the location line number is less than the unknown line number. However, the problem is there are multiple locations and multiple unknowns, so if the unknown is above several locations it prints all of those locations whereas I want the closes one. Please see the code:

Code:
 
typeset -i i=0
typeset -i j=0
grep -h -n "LOCATION" $R_FILE | cut -d ':' -f 1 | while read value
do 
arr[i]="$value"
i=$(( $i + 1))
done
　
grep -h -n "unknown" $R_FILE | cut -d ':' -f 1 | while read value
do 
uarr[j]="$value"
j=$(( $j + 1))
done
 
for j in ${uarr[@]}; 
do 
         for i in ${arr[@]};
         do
                         if (($j > $i)) 
                               then 
                                      LOC=$(awk "NR==$i" $R_FILE)
                                      UNK=$(awk "NR==$j" $R_FILE)
                                      print $LOC","$UNK | awk -F"," '{print $1","$2","$4","$5","$3}' >> output 
                         fi
            done
done

Output is as follows:

Code:
LOCATION: M1,19,8300,unknown,
LOCATION: M1,13,eeee,unknown,eooeo
LOCATION: B,13,eeee,unknown,eooeo
LOCATION: M1,5,TICKLISH,unknown,83838388383
LOCATION: B,5,TICKLISH,unknown,83838388383
LOCATION: CL 1-2,5,TICKLISH,unknown,83838388383
LOCATION: CL 1-1,5,TICKLISH,unknown,83838388383
LOCATION: CL 2-2,5,TICKLISH,unknown,83838388383
LOCATION: CL 2-1,5,TICKLISH,unknown,83838388383

Output should be:

Code:
LOCATION: M1,19,8300,unknown,
LOCATION: B,13,eeee,unknown,eooeo
LOCATION: CL 2-1,5,TICKLISH,unknown,83838388383

unknown

UNKNOWN(1)						      General Commands Manual							UNKNOWN(1)

NAME

       unknown - identify possible genotypes for unknowns

SYNOPSIS

       A program to rapidly identify which genotypes are possible for individuals typed as unknowns in the input pedigree.

       unknown [ -cl ]

DESCRIPTION

       unknown infers possible genotypes and mating combinations for parents with unknown genotypes for ilink(1), mlink(1) and linkmap(1).

OPTIONS

       -c     Use conditional allele frequencies.

       -l     Choose a good set of loop breakers automatically.

RETURN VALUE

       0     Successful completion

ERRORS

       10    File not found
       255   Failure

EXAMPLES

       Normally, unknown(1) is run immediately prior to its sister programs, ilink(1), mlink(1) and linkmap(1), like this:

       unknown
       mlink

FILES

       unknown(1) reads the two files pedfile.dat and datafile.dat as its own input and produces various temporary files that are used as input to
       the next program. These temporary files are ipedfile.dat, upedfile.dat, speedfile.dat and newspeedfile.dat.

NOTES

       unknown(1) is part of the FASTLINK package, which is a re-implementation of the LINKAGE suite  of  computer  tools  that  help  investigate
       genetic linkage as first proposed G.M. Lathrop, J.M. Lalouel, C. Julier, and J. Ott.
