awk '
BEGIN {
i = 0
while ( i <= 61000 )
{
print i, 0
i += 50

} '

I suggest a slight change:

awk '
BEGIN {
i = 0
while ( i <= 61000 )
{
print i, 0
i += 50

You are right. I thought awk would still try to read stdin, but apparently it does not when there is a BEGIN section and no other section. Interesting.

seq 0 50 61000 | sed 's/$/ 0/'

Slight variation:
awk '{split($0,A); getline<f; print A[1], A[2]-$2, A[5]-$3}' f=fileB fileA

Hi.

Similar to awk, Gary Perlman's |stat dm:

Using paste & awk:-
paste file_A file_B | awk ' { printf "%d %d %d\n", $1, ($2-$7), ($5-$8); } '

Please post a representative sample of the input and the corresponding expected output.

Without any samples, try this:
awk '{a1=$1;a2=$2;a5=$5;getline<"fileB";print a1,(a2-$2),(a5-$3)}' fileA
