Column minus column operation?
I have a two files, file A and B, which have 5 columns, and each 5 columns are made up of random numbers, that means, numbers are all different.
They have same amount of lines (Both 1000 lines)
I hope to do a operation
1) 2nd column of file A - 2nd column of file B
2) 5th column of file A - 3rd column of file B
and print them out with file name 'results' with
First column: 1st column of file A
Second column: result of 1)
Third column: result of 2)
I've been tried to use cat and awk, but not works. Need any help here~

NAME

SYNOPSIS
column [-tx] [-c columns] [-s sep] [file ...]
DESCRIPTION
The column utility formats its input into multiple columns. Rows are filled before columns. Input is taken from file operands, or, by
default, from the standard input. Empty lines are ignored.
The options are as follows:
-c Output is formatted for a display columns wide.
-s Specify a set of characters to be used to delimit columns for the -t option.
-t Determine the number of columns the input contains and create a table. Columns are delimited with whitespace, by default, or with
the characters supplied using the -s option. Useful for pretty-printing displays.
-x Fill columns before filling rows.
Column exits 0 on success, >0 if an error occurred.
ENVIRONMENT
COLUMNS The environment variable COLUMNS is used to determine the size of the screen if no other information is available.
EXAMPLES
(printf "PERM LINKS OWNER GROUP SIZE MONTH DAY HH:MM/YEAR NAME
