Hi,
Could anyone please explain why we have arr=1 - what does this statement do?
awk -F\; 'FNR==NR{arr=1;next};$3 in arr' core.txt gmrd.txt
Any help appreciated (2 Replies)
As I know:
FNR: The ordinal number of the current record in the current file.
NR: The ordinal number of the current record from the start of input.
I don't understand really differency between NR and FNR. Who can explain it for me? And give me an example.
Thanks (1 Reply)

Hi Guys,
I have two files:
f1:
A B C D E F G H
f2:
A X Y Z
f1 has 48000 lines, and f2 has 68. I have been matching f1 $3 to f2 $1, and getting f3:
A A B C D E F G
I would like f3 too look like this:
A X Y Z A B C D E F G (2 Replies)
awk -F'' 'FNR==NR {a=$2; next} {$1=a} 1' $useralias ${entries} >> ${entries}_2
Hi,
Is there anyway to alter this command so that if it does not find a match it will just leave the line alone instead of replacing what it doesn't find with a blank space? (4 Replies)
Example:
$ cat file1
2
3$ cat file2
1
2
3
4
5
6The following awk script works like a charm, NR==FNR is true for file1, the remainder runs for file2:
awk '
NR==FNR {A; next}
($1 in A)
' file1 file2
2
3Now have an empty file1:
>file1and run the awk script again.
The result is empty... (8 Replies)

Sorry for the probably strangely worded title but I don't really know how else to put it.

merge
merge(1)merge(1)NAME
merge - three-way file merge
SYNOPSIS
merge [-Llabel1 [-Llabel3]] [-p] [-q] file1 file2 file3
DESCRIPTION
merge incorporates all changes that lead from file2 to file3 into file1. The result goes to standard output if -p is present, into file1
otherwise. merge is useful for combining separate changes to an original. Suppose file2 is the original, and both file1 and file3 are
modifications of file2. Then merge combines both changes.
An overlap occurs if both file1 and file3 have changes in a common segment of lines. On a few older hosts where diff3 does not support the
-E option, merge does not detect overlaps, and merely supplies the changed lines from file3. On most hosts, if overlaps occur, merge out-
puts a message (unless the -q option is given), and includes both alternatives in the result. The alternatives are delimited as follows:
<<<<<<< file1 lines in file1 ======= lines in file3 >>>>>>> file3
If there are overlaps, the user should edit the result and delete one of the alternatives. If the -L label1 and -L label3 options are
given, the labels are output in place of the names file1 and file3 in overlap reports.
DIAGNOSTICS
Exit status is 0 for no overlaps, 1 for some overlaps, 2 for trouble.
