I want to find the top N entries for a certain field based on the values of another field.
For example if N=3, we want the 3 best values for each entry:
Entry1 ||| 100
Entry1 ||| 95
Entry1 ||| 30
Entry1 ||| 80
Entry1 ||| 50
Entry2 ||| 40
Entry2 ||| 20
Entry2 ||| 10
Entry2 ||| 50... (1 Reply)
Hi.
I have a tab separated file that has a couple nearly identical lines. When doing:
sort file | uniq > file.new
It passes through the nearly identical lines because, well, they still are unique.

I want to look only at field x for uniqueness and if the content in field x is the... (1 Reply)

I would like to print unique lines without sort or unique. Unfortunately the server I am working on does not have sort or unique. I have not been able to contact the administrator of the server to ask him to add it for several weeks. (7 Replies)
I am trying to use awk to print the unique entries in $2
So in the example below there are 3 lines but 2 of the lines match in $2 so only one is used in the output.

Hello experts,
I am converting a number into its binary output as :
read n
echo "obase=2;$n" | bc
I wish to count the maximum continuous occurrences of the digit 1.
Example :
1. The binary equivalent of 5 = 101. Hence the output must be 1.
2. The binary... (3 Replies)
In the awk below I am trying to print the entire line, along with the header row, if $2 is SNV or MNV or INDEL. If that condition is met or is true, and $3 is less than or equal to 0.05, then in $7 the sub pattern :GMAF= is found and the value after the = sign is checked. If that value is less than...

join
JOIN(1) General Commands Manual JOIN(1)NAME
join - relational database operator
SYNOPSIS
join [ options ] file1 file2
DESCRIPTION
Join forms, on the standard output, a join of the two relations specified by the lines of file1 and file2. If file1 is `-', the standard
input is used.
File1 and file2 must be sorted in increasing ASCII collating sequence on the fields on which they are to be joined, normally the first in
each line.
There is one line in the output for each pair of lines in file1 and file2 that have identical join fields. The output line normally con-
sists of the common field, then the rest of the line from file1, then the rest of the line from file2.
Fields are normally separated by blank, tab or newline. In this case, multiple separators count as one, and leading separators are dis-
carded.
These options are recognized:
-an In addition to the normal output, produce a line for each unpairable line in file n, where n is 1 or 2.
-e s Replace empty output fields by string s.
-jn m Join on the mth field of file n. If n is missing, use the mth field in each file.
-o list
Each output line comprises the fields specified in list, each element of which has the form n.m, where n is a file number and m is a
field number.
-tc Use character c as a separator (tab character). Every appearance of c in a line is significant.
SEE ALSO sort(1), comm(1), awk(1)BUGS
With default field separation, the collating sequence is that of sort -b; with -t, the sequence is that of a plain sort.
The conventions of join, sort, comm, uniq, look and awk(1) are wildly incongruous.
