I have a file that has inconsistently numbered columns.
Like row1 has 23 columns, and row 2 has 34 columns etc.
I would like to re-order the first 8 columns as required and from the 9th column till the end, I would like to print it as it is.
I tried to read the re-ordered 8 columns into a variable called v and then tried to print from 9th column till the end using a for loop. But, this just prints the 9th column and not the entire columns till the last.
The field separator is space.
Please show us some sample input, the output you're getting from your script, and the output you want to get.
Hi,
I have a file that looks like this:
s6 98
s6 91
s6 56
s5 32
s5 10
s5 4
So what I want to do is print only the highest value for each value in the column:
So the file will look like this:
s6 98
s5 32
Thanks (4 Replies)

I'm trying to sort the list below, so that multiple instances of the form
pass=i_d=j
are contiguous. Curiously, the standard sort command to do this works some of the time (it produced the output below) but not all of the time.
the command I used was

COLUMN(1) User Commands COLUMN(1)NAME
column - columnate lists
SYNOPSIS
column [options] file...
DESCRIPTION
The column utility formats its input into multiple columns. Rows are filled before columns. Input is taken from file or, by default, from
standard input. Empty lines are ignored.
OPTIONS -c, --columns width
Output is formatted to a width specified as number of characters.
-t, --table
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 separator. Table output is useful for pretty-printing.
-s, --separator separators
Specify possible table delimiters (default is whitespace).
-o, --output-separator separators
Specify table output delimiter (default is two whitespaces).
-x, --fillrows
Fill columns before filling rows.
-h, --help
Print help and exit.
ENVIRONMENT
The environment variable COLUMNS is used to determine the size of the screen if no other information is available.
EXAMPLES
sed 's/#.*//' /etc/fstab | column -t
BUGS
The util-linux version 2.23 changed -s option to be non-greedy, for example:
$ printf "a:b:c
1::3
" | column -t -s ':'
old output:
a b c
1 3
new output (since util-linux 2.23)
a b c
1 3
SEE ALSO colrm(1), ls(1), paste(1), sort(1)HISTORY
The column command appeared in 4.3BSD-Reno.
AVAILABILITY
The column command is part of the util-linux package and is available from ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/.
