To fetch specific words from a file
Hi All,
I have a file like this,(This is a sql output file)
cat query_file

200000029
12345 10001
0.2 0

I want to fetch the values 200000029,10001,0.2 .I tried using the below code but i could get only the 200000029
NOTE: The query_file contains similar kind of records.

cat query_file | awk -F " " '/[[:digit:]]/ { print $1 }'

Can anyone please help me to do this.

Thanks in advance,
Giri
