It makes two passes of the file (this is why filename is passed on commandline twice).
First pass stores all the IDs (field 1) in k[]:
The Second pass blanks the string v then builds it up with all the ids within 10 of the current (excluding the current line of course):
This value v is then stripped of the first comma and added as a new field on the end of the line 1 this is a true expression and will cause awk to print the current line (ie the line that was just appended with v's contents).
OFS="\t" sets output fieldsep to TAB

LEARN ABOUT NETBSD
comm
COMM(1) BSD General Commands Manual COMM(1)NAME
comm -- select or reject lines common to two files
SYNOPSIS
comm [-123f] file1 file2
DESCRIPTION
The comm utility reads file1 and file2, which should be sorted lexically, and produces three text columns as output: lines only in file1;
lines only in file2; and lines in both files.
The filename ``-'' means the standard input.
The following options are available:
-1 Suppress printing of column 1.
-2 Suppress printing of column 2.
-3 Suppress printing of column 3.
-f Fold case in line comparisons.
Each column will have a number of tab characters prepended to it equal to the number of lower numbered columns that are being printed. For
example, if column number two is being suppressed, lines printed in column number one will not have any tabs preceding them, and lines
printed in column number three will have one.
comm assumes that the files are lexically sorted; all characters participate in line comparisons.
EXIT STATUS
comm exits 0 on success, >0 if an error occurred.
SEE ALSO cmp(1), diff(1), sort(1), uniq(1)STANDARDS
The comm utility conforms to IEEE Std 1003.2-1992 (``POSIX.2'').
