Is this a homework assignment? If not, what is creating your input files?

What shell are you using?

Are all of the integers on a single line in your input files?

This is not a homework assignment. The integers are the number of days after a certain date and the data is not available for some days, so some days are missing. Its actually for a project I'm working on. I am creating a regression model using the data via ampl. Now, I would like to analyse just the data after certain date. So, I thought there must be an easy way to separate out the data I want, using UNIX.

I am using bash and there is one integer on a single line.

NAME
sysstat - sysstat configuration file. DESCRIPTION
This file is read by sa1(8) and sa2(8) shell scripts from the sysstat's set of tools. It consists of a sequence of shell variable assign- ments used to configure sysstat logging. The variables and their meanings are: HISTORY The number of days during which a daily data file or a report should be kept. Data files or reports older than this number of days will be removed by the sa2(8) shell script. COMPRESSAFTER Number of days after which daily data files are to be compressed, either by gzip or bzip2. SADC_OPTIONS Options that should be passed to sadc(8). With these options (see sadc(8) manual page), you can select some additional data which are going to be saved in daily data files. These options are used only when a new data file is created. They will be ignored with an already existing one. FILES
