1. Entries in file A is missing in file B (primary is field 1)
2. Entries in file B is missing in file A (primary is field 1)
3. Field 1 is present in both files but Field 2 is different.
Example Content:
File A
File B
For Condition 1, I used the below code:
1. Entries in file A is missing in file B (primary is field 1)
Similarly, For Condition 2, I used the below code:
2. Entries in file B is missing in file A (primary is field 1)
But for the third condition, I am facing issue.
3. Field 1 is present in both files but Field 2 is different.
I am using below code which is not working:
I know that am missing a part of the logic to handle the missing entries. Please assist on the Condition 3.
## Just to add, I need to print the changed entry of file 1 and file2 (condition 3) both - in two different output files. I can do it using awk and comm - but I am looking for a single command to do this.

Can you please explain the second part of the code:
Actually for Condition 3 - I also need to print one more output of the Entries that differ in File2.
