Extracting differences between two columns dataset (SQL command)

Hi,

I have a table in my sqlite, here is an example (tab separated)

Code:
585     name1 chr1    +       1872    3533    3533    3533    6       1872,2041,2475,2837,3083,3315,  1920,2090,2560,2915,3237,3533,  name2

The 10th and 11th columns have information in a comma separated format (not tab).

Code:
1872,2041,2475,2837,3083,3315,  1920,2090,2560,2915,3237,3533,

.

I want to know if there's a sql command I can use to find the difference between the first value of column 10 and the first value in column 11, and the same for the second column, etc.?

for example
1920-1872
2090-2041
2560-2475
.
.
.
3533-3315

Thanks

NAME
sqlt-diff - find the differences b/w two schemas SYNOPSIS
For help: sqlt-diff -h|--help For a list of all valid parsers: sqlt -l|--list To diff two schemas: sqlt-diff [options] file_name1=parser1 file_name2=parser2 Options: -d|--debug Show debugging info -t|--trace Turn on tracing for Parse::RecDescent -c|--case-insensitive Compare tables/columns case-insensitively --ignore-index-names Ignore index name differences --ignore-constraint-names Ignore constraint name differences --mysql_parser_version=<#####> Specify a target MySQL parser version for dealing with /*! comments --output-db=<Producer> This Producer will be used instead of one corresponding to parser1 to format output for new tables --ignore-view-sql Ignore view SQL differences --ignore-proc-sql Ignore procedure SQL differences --no-batch-alters Do not clump multile alters to the same table into a single ALTER TABLE statement where possible. --quote=<character> Use <character> to quote all table and field names in statements DESCRIPTION
sqlt-diff is a utility for creating a file of SQL commands necessary to transform the first schema provided to the second. While not yet exhaustive in its ability to mutate the entire schema, it will report the following o New tables Using the Producer class of the target (second) schema, any tables missing in the first schema will be generated in their entirety (fields, constraints, indices). o Missing/altered fields Any fields missing or altered between the two schemas will be reported as: ALTER TABLE <table_name> [DROP <field_name>] [CHANGE <field_name> <datatype> (<size>)] ; o Missing/altered indices Any indices missing or of a different type or on different fields will be indicated. Indices that should be dropped will be reported as such: DROP INDEX <index_name> ON <table_name> ; An index of a different type or on different fields will be reported as a new index as such: CREATE [<index_type>] INDEX [<index_name>] ON <table_name> ( <field_name>[,<field_name>] ) ; ALTER, CREATE, DROP statements are created by SQL::Translator::Producer::*, see there for support/problems. Currently (v0.0900), only MySQL is supported by this code. AUTHOR
