Hello newbie_01,

I have a few to questions pose in response first:-
  • Is this homework/assignment? There are specific forums for these.
  • What have you tried so far?
  • What output/errors do you get?
  • What OS and version are you using?
  • What are your preferred tools? (C, shell, perl, awk, etc.)
  • What logical process have you considered? (to help steer us to follow what you are trying to achieve)
Most importantly, What have you tried so far?

I'm not too clear what you intention is, but if you can numerically sort the data (or it already is) and pass it through grep, the -A and/or -B flags may do what you want.

There are probably many ways to achieve most tasks, so giving us an idea of your style and thoughts will help us guide you to an answer most suitable to you so you can adjust it to suit your needs in future.


Kind regards,
Robin

drop_tablespace

DROP 
TABLESPACE(7)						   SQL Commands 						DROP TABLESPACE(7)

NAME

       DROP TABLESPACE - remove a tablespace

SYNOPSIS

       DROP TABLESPACE [ IF EXISTS ] tablespacename

DESCRIPTION

       DROP TABLESPACE removes a tablespace from the system.

       A  tablespace  can  only  be  dropped  by  its owner or a superuser.  The tablespace must be empty of all database objects before it can be
       dropped. It is possible that objects in other databases might still reside in the tablespace even if no objects in the current database are
       using  the  tablespace. Also, if the tablespace is listed in the temp_tablespaces setting of any active session, the DROP might fail due to
       temporary files residing in the tablespace.

PARAMETERS

       IF EXISTS
	      Do not throw an error if the tablespace does not exist. A notice is issued in this case.

       tablespacename
	      The name of a tablespace.

NOTES

       DROP TABLESPACE cannot be executed inside a transaction block.

EXAMPLES

       To remove tablespace mystuff from the system:

       DROP TABLESPACE mystuff;

COMPATIBILITY

       DROP TABLESPACE is a PostgreSQL extension.

SEE ALSO

       CREATE TABLESPACE [create_tablespace(7)], ALTER TABLESPACE [alter_tablespace(7)]
