A simpler way to do this (save a list of files based on part of their name)
Hello,
I have a script that checks every file with a specific extension in a specific directory. The file names contain some numerical output and I am recording the file names with the best n outcomes.
The script finds all files in the directory with the extension .out.txt and uses awk to parse the filename on underscore. In this case, I am reading the first field and looking for the smallest three values across the set of files. In other cases, I may be reading the third field. I understand that in this simple case, all I would have to do is take the first three files, but there will be other cases where that would not work.
This is the script at this point and there is sample input in the attached zip. The input file names look like,
My main question is about how to keep a running record of the file names of the best three values as I loop through the file names. This script does it by brute force and works alright, but I may need to save the top 20 or 50, and I don't look forward to coding that up with the method I used above.
