I've been working on a script (/bin/sh) in which I have requested and received help here (in which I am very grateful for!). The client has modified their requirements (a tad), so without messing up the script to much, I come once again for assistance.
Here are the file.dat contents: My current code will find the section header (ABC1) and the duplicates (ABC5) in that section and output that information into another file.
New client requirement: I need to add the “ABC3” line into the report
There are two expressions in the code,
the first one is:
If the current record matches the pattern ABC[13]AND the value returned by the assignment of the value of the second field to the variable h is true - print the record.
OK, I'm cheating here, it's a shortcut that will fail if the value of $2 is 0, on the other hand, if that value could never be 0, there's less code to write (the fact is that we don't care what's the return value of the assignment, we just need to print those records and save the value of $2).
So we print the records ABC1, ABC3 and save the numeric part of the header in the h variable.
The second expression is:
We build an associative array keyed by the concatenated values of the previously saved header number, the second and the third field. The values are an auto-incremented integers.
When the value is 1, we print the record, because we see it for the second time (the first time we see a key, the value is 0 (because of the post-incrementing operator).
