Taking sum up all values inside the file
Hi,

Taking sum up all values inside the file by using the below command:

paste -sd+ filenmae | bc

Getting some error like "0705-001: building space exceeded on line1 stdin"

The original data looks like

SPACE SPACE SPACE 0.123 [.\] JOBNAME1
SPACE SPACE 20.325 [.\] JOBNAME2
SPACE SPACE SPACE SPACE SPACE 402.238 [.\] JOBNAME3

Like that, some thousands of records for four files. By using sed command, removing all the starting spaces in a file and storing vlaues(i.e., cpu time) column alone in a file and trying take to the count by using paste command.

I tried to use different scenarios to take the count by using awk, eventhough am getting same error.

The error is displaying for few files only. I verified the file contents there is no spaces or empty rows.

Thanks for you help in advance.

lire::sum

Sum(3pm)						  LogReport's Lire Documentation						  Sum(3pm)

NAME

       Lire::Sum - Lire class that implements the sum operator

SYNOPSIS

	use Lire::Sum

DESCRIPTION

       Class that implements the sum operator. This operator will compute the field's sum in a group of DLF records.

       It's possible to compute a weighted sum in which each value is first multiplied by the value of another DLF field.

       Its also possible to express the count as a ratio of the total count for the group or table.

METHODS

   new( %params )
       Creates a new Lire::Count object. In addition to the values supported by its parents, the weight and ratio attributes will be initialized
       to the values specified in the %params argument.

   weight( [$new_weight] )
       Returns the DLF field's name by which the values will be multiplied before being summed.

       You can change the weight field by specifying a new name as the $new_weight parameter. Use undef to remove the use of a weighting field.

   ratio([$new_ratio])
       Returns how the sum will be expressed. This can one of three possible values:

       none
	   Default. The absolute sum will be used.

       group
	   The sum will be expressed as a percentage of the group's sum.

       table
	   The sum will be expressed as a percentage of the table's total sum.
