Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting awk second largest, third largest value Post 302555087 by theawknewbie on Tuesday 13th of September 2011 09:19:18 PM

Thanks for that last reply! That really did it for 2nd max, but what can I do for a 3rd largest max with the same "max - $2>5" idea??
It's sort of like this (continued)

Code:
133 800 
         133 799 
133 798 
133 403 
133 402 
133 401
133 127
133 126
133 125

pseudocode: select real max;print $0;exit && select second max; print$0;exit && select thirdmax;print$0 exit >> newfile.txt

eventually to obtain: cat newfile.txt
Code:
133 800
133 403
133 127

I'm stuck here because the next function seems built in here to find a second max, can I store the second max in a variable and tell it to 'next' that record to find the 3rd maximum? Any tips would be well appreciated. Thanks!

NAME
csteqr.f - SYNOPSIS
Functions/Subroutines subroutine csteqr (COMPZ, N, D, E, Z, LDZ, WORK, INFO) CSTEQR Function/Subroutine Documentation subroutine csteqr (characterCOMPZ, integerN, real, dimension( * )D, real, dimension( * )E, complex, dimension( ldz, * )Z, integerLDZ, real, dimension( * )WORK, integerINFO) CSTEQR Purpose: CSTEQR computes all eigenvalues and, optionally, eigenvectors of a symmetric tridiagonal matrix using the implicit QL or QR method. The eigenvectors of a full or band complex Hermitian matrix can also be found if CHETRD or CHPTRD or CHBTRD has been used to reduce this matrix to tridiagonal form. Parameters: COMPZ COMPZ is CHARACTER*1 = 'N': Compute eigenvalues only. = 'V': Compute eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the original Hermitian matrix. On entry, Z must contain the unitary matrix used to reduce the original matrix to tridiagonal form. = 'I': Compute eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the tridiagonal matrix. Z is initialized to the identity matrix. N N is INTEGER The order of the matrix. N >= 0. D D is REAL array, dimension (N) On entry, the diagonal elements of the tridiagonal matrix. On exit, if INFO = 0, the eigenvalues in ascending order. E E is REAL array, dimension (N-1) On entry, the (n-1) subdiagonal elements of the tridiagonal matrix. On exit, E has been destroyed. Z Z is COMPLEX array, dimension (LDZ, N) On entry, if COMPZ = 'V', then Z contains the unitary matrix used in the reduction to tridiagonal form. On exit, if INFO = 0, then if COMPZ = 'V', Z contains the orthonormal eigenvectors of the original Hermitian matrix, and if COMPZ = 'I', Z contains the orthonormal eigenvectors of the symmetric tridiagonal matrix. If COMPZ = 'N', then Z is not referenced. LDZ LDZ is INTEGER The leading dimension of the array Z. LDZ >= 1, and if eigenvectors are desired, then LDZ >= max(1,N). WORK WORK is REAL array, dimension (max(1,2*N-2)) If COMPZ = 'N', then WORK is not referenced. INFO INFO is INTEGER = 0: successful exit < 0: if INFO = -i, the i-th argument had an illegal value > 0: the algorithm has failed to find all the eigenvalues in a total of 30*N iterations; if INFO = i, then i elements of E have not converged to zero; on exit, D and E contain the elements of a symmetric tridiagonal matrix which is unitarily similar to the original matrix.
