Hello yifangt,

So here A[1] means array named A whose index is 1(digit one) and value is A[1]=current line of Input_file1. So now when you try to print A[$2] or A[$1] then it means it will look for $2/$1's value from current line from Input_file2 into array A(eg-->A[S00739A]) which is NOT present at all in array A. Thus it will NOT print anything then. Kindly do let me know if I was NOT clear, will try to explain more on same then.

Thanks,
R. Singh
