Hammer & Screwdriver What do you think of this logic?
Code:
i=1
while read num
do
        echo "Tab$i     $num    \c"
        read num
        echo "$num"
        i=$(($i+1))
done < file_containg_nums

file doesnt have any special structure....it is just like some nos in each line as shown.....
no of rows is 29 for numbers and 10 for table names....
need to arrange them like 10 rows, each table having three nos beside it.
And the nos in file are to be used from top to bottom as shown previously...!!!!

Try this:
Code:
awk -F"\t" '{a[NR%10]=a[NR%10]?a[NR%10] FS $0:$0}
END{a[10]=a[0];for(i=1;i<=10;i++)print a[i]}
' file
