Bash/awk script problem
Hi,

I have 100 files containing different values in single column,
I want to split those files in two separate files (file2 and file3) based on average value of first column of each file,

for those files I am working on the following script

Code:
#bin/bash 
for memb in $(seq 1 100)
do
 awk '{s+=($1); avg = s/NR} END{print avg}' file1_$memb.dat
   
 if [ avg > 0.28 ]; then
      paste file1_$memb > file2.dat
   else
      paste file1_$memb.dat > file3.dat
    fi                             
 done

basically, I want to divide 100 files based on average value and paste each column of files in corresponding files.

thanks,

IGAWK(1)							 Utility Commands							  IGAWK(1)

NAME

       igawk - gawk with include files

SYNOPSIS

       igawk [ all gawk options ] -f program-file [ -- ] file ...
       igawk [ all gawk options ] [ -- ] program-text file ...

DESCRIPTION

       Igawk is a simple shell script that adds the ability to have ``include files'' to gawk(1).

       AWK programs for igawk are the same as for gawk, except that, in addition, you may have lines like

	      @include getopt.awk

       in your program to include the file getopt.awk from either the current directory or one of the other directories in the search path.

OPTIONS

       See gawk(1) for a full description of the AWK language and the options that gawk supports.

EXAMPLES

       cat << EOF > test.awk
       @include getopt.awk

       BEGIN {
	    while (getopt(ARGC, ARGV, "am:q") != -1)
		 ...
       }
       EOF

       igawk -f test.awk
