I am trying to compare two text files and output the difference to another file.
I'm not strictly looking for differences in text but additional text at the end of one file that isn't in another, so basically comparing the file 2 against file 1 and printing any additional text to file 3.
Code
the following is an error output when I run the script:
Error code:
> /usr/asm/atl.1001/user_data/error_logs/LOG1001.TXT^J^J^J: cannot open
Any help greatly appreciated!
It appears that you do not have permission to create /usr/asm/atl.1001/user_data/error_logs/LOG1001.TXT if it doesn't already exist, or you do not have permission to erase the current contents and write new data to that file if it does already exist. What is the output of the command:
after you get that error message?
Just out of curiosity, why do you want to remove the first character of the system's node name when creating a log file for that system?
I have to compare two files for any differences, then output the lab and question number for any differences. This is what I currently have:
diff lab2.txt lab2answer.txt > lab2compare.txt
Though the output doesn't have to be sent to a .txt (or any sort of log), I found that easier, at least... (2 Replies)
I have two files like this:
#FILE 1
ABCD 4322 26485
JMTJ 5311 97248

#FILE 2
ABCD 4321 26485
JMTJ 5311 97248
XMPJ 4321 68978
What to do: Compare the two files and find those lines that doesn't match. And have a new file like this:
#FILE 3
"from file 1"

Hi there,
I'm sure this question has been asked many times but I can't find any posts with information.
How can I check the differences between say lines 20 - 200 in file1 and lines 420 - 600 in file2?
Thanks in advance for any help!

I know the diff does this but it does output more info than just the different text
(e.g.
$ diff file1 file2
29a30
> /home/alex/Pictures/hello.jpg
1694a1696
> /home/alex/Pictures/hi.jpg
)
How can I make it output only
/home/alex/Pictures/hello.jpg
/home/alex/Pictures/hi.jpg
?

h5diff
h5diff(1) General Commands Manual h5diff(1)NAME
h5diff - Compares two HDF5 files and reports the differences.
SYNOPSIS
h5diff file1 file2 [OPTIONS] [object1 [object2 ] ]
DESCRIPTION
h5diff is a command line tool that compares two HDF5 files, file1 and file2, and reports the differences between them.
Optionally, h5diff will compare two objects within these files. If only one object, object1, is specified, h5diff will compare object1 in
file1 with object1 in file2. In two objects, object1 and object2, are specified, h5diff will compare object1 in file1 with object2 in
file2. These objects must be HDF5 datasets.
object1 and object2 must be expressed as absolute paths from the respective file's root group.
Additional information, with several sample cases, can be found in the document H5diff Examples.
OPTIONS
file1 file2
The HDF5 files to be compared.
-h Print all differences.
-r Print only the names of objects that differ; do not print the differences. These objects may be HDF5 datasets, groups, or named
datatypes.
-n count
Print difference up to count differences, then stop. count must be a positive integer.
-d delta
Print only differences that are greater than the limit delta. delta must be a positive number. The comparison criterion is whether
the absolute value of the difference of two corresponding values is greater than delta (e.g., |a-b| > delta, where a is a value in
file1 and b is a value in file2).
-p relative
Print only differences that are greater than a relative error. relative must be a positive number. The comparison criterion is
whether the absolute value of the difference 1 and the ratio of two corresponding values is greater than relative (e.g., |1-(b/a)| >
relative where a is a value in file1 and b is a value in file2).
object1 object2
Specific object(s) within the files to be compared.
EXAMPLES
The following h5diff call compares the object /a/b in file1 with the object /a/c in file2:
h5diff file1 file2 /a/b /a/c
This h5diff call compares the object /a/b in file1 with the same object in file2:
h5diff file1 file2 /a/b
And this h5diff call compares all objects in both files:
h5diff file1 file2
