Pairing the nth elements on multiple lines iteratively
Hello,
I'm trying to create a word translation section of a book. Each entry in the word list will come from a set of linguistically analyzed texts.
Each sentence in the text has the following format. The first element in each line is the "name" of the line (i.e. "A","B","C","D"). The first line is the object language, the second line is a morpheme gloss, the third and fourth lines are stem/word-level translations:
Code:
A word1 word2 word3 word4
B wordW wordX wordY wordZ
C wordA wordB wordC wordD
D wordI wordII wordIII wordIV
What I'd like to do is pull the nth element in 2 or more lines (not counting the line "name"), and output them as a pair (or n-tuple) on the same line, later to be exported as columns to a spreadsheet. So for the above, I'd like:
Note that the initial "name" elements occur several thousand times in the file, and I'd like to take care of all lines so named at the same time. Thanks, any ideas?

I want to build the average for every line, and write the result to a new file.
The averaging should start at a specific line, here for example at line... (10 Replies)
Hi all,
I would like to extract the line number of the n-th occurrency of a given string in a file.
e.g.
xxx
yyy
xxx

What is the fastest way to do it in bash?

I have several files (around 50) that have the similar format. I need to extract the 5th line from every file and output that into a text file. So far, I have been able to figure out how to do it for a single file:
$ awk 'NR==5' text1.txt > results.txt
OR
$ sed -n '5p' text1.txt > results.txt... (6 Replies)
This code works perfect when using a machine with only one interface online. (Excluding the loopback of course) But when I have other interface up for vmware or a vpn the output gets mixed up. I know I had this working when I was just reading ip's from files so I know it is not a problem with... (8 Replies)

GM,
I have an issue at work, which requires a simple solution. But, after multiple attempts, I have not been able to hit on the code needed.
I am assuming that sed, awk or even perl could do what I need.

Hi,
I have a huge list of archives (.gz). Each archive is about 40MB. A file is generated every minute so if I want to analyze the data for 1 hour I get already 60 files for example.
These are text files, ';' separated, each line having about 300 fields (columns).
What I need to do is to... (11 Replies)
I need your help to discover missing elements for each box.
In theory each box should have 4 items: ITEM01, ITEM02, ITEM08, and ITEM10.
Some boxes either have a missing item (BOX02 ITEM08) or might have da duplicate item (BOX03 ITEM02) and missing another one (BOX03 ITEM01).
