my input
a 9
b 2
c 5
d 3
e 7
desired output (current line column 2 - previous line column 2)
a 9
b 2 -7
c 5 3
d 3 -2
e 7 4
explanation
a 9
b 2 -7 ( 2-9 = -7 )
c 5 3 ( 5-2 = 3 )
d 3 -2 ( 3-5 = -2 )
e 7 4 ( 7-3 = 4 )
I tried this without success
awk '{ print $1, $2,$2 - $(NR-1) }' input
I want a awk code to generate an additional column contains de calculation of current line less previous line in column 2
You can try this awk
$ awk 'NR==1{ print $0 } NR>1{ print $0,$2 - pre } { pre=$2 }' file
a 9
b 2 -7
c 5 3
d 3 -2
e 7 4

To figure out my problem, I subtract column 3 and create a new column 5 with new values, then I print the previous and current line if the value found is equal to 25 in column 5.
Input file
1 1 35 1
2 5 50 1
2 6 75 1
4 7 85 1
5 8 100 1
6 9 125 1
4 1 200 1
I tried
awk '{$5 = $3 - prev3; prev3 = $3; print $0}' file
output
1 1 35 1 35
2 5 50 1 15
2 6 75 1 25
4 7 85 1 10
5 8 100 1 15
6 9 125 1 25
4 1 200 1 75
Desired Output
2 5 50 1 15
2 6 75 1 25
5 8 100 1 15
6 9 125 1 25
Thanks in advance
you're almost there, in addition to previous $3, keep the previous $0 and only print when condition is satisfied.
$ awk '{$5=$3-p3} $5==25{print p0; print} {p0=$0;p3=$3}' file
2 5 50 1 15
2 6 75 1 25
5 8 100 1 15
6 9 125 1 25
this can be further golfed to
$ awk '25==($5=$3-p3){print p0; print} {p0=$0;p3=$3}' file
check the newly computed field $5 whether equal to 25. If so print the previous line and current line. Save the previous line and previous $3 for the computations in the next line.
You are close to the answer, just pipe it another awk and print it
awk '{$5 = $3 - prev3; prev3 = $3; print $0}' oxxo.txt | awk ' { curr=$0; if($5==25) { print prev;print curr } prev=curr } '
with Inputs:
$ cat oxxo.txt
1 1 35 1
2 5 50 1
2 6 75 1
4 7 85 1
5 8 100 1
6 9 125 1
4 1 200 1
$ awk '{$5 = $3 - prev3; prev3 = $3; print $0}' oxxo.txt | awk ' { curr=$0; if($5==25) { print prev;print curr } prev=curr } '
2 5 50 1 15
2 6 75 1 25
5 8 100 1 15
6 9 125 1 25

Could you please try following.
awk '$3-prev==25{print line ORS $0,$3} {$(NF+1)=$3-prev;prev=$3;line=$0}' Input_file | column -t
Here's one:
$ awk '{$5=$3-q;t=p;p=$0;q=$3;$0=t ORS $0}$10==25' file
2 5 50 1 15
2 6 75 1 25
5 8 100 1 15
6 9 125 1 25
Explained:
$ awk '{
$5=$3-q # subtract
t=p # previous to temp
p=$0 # store previous for next round
q=$3 # store subtract value for next round
$0=t ORS $0 # prepare record for output
}
$10==25 # output if equals
' file
No checking for duplicates so you might get same record printed twice. Easiest way to fix is to pipe the output to uniq.
In my data file, there is a certain column I am interested. So I used awk to print out only that column (awk '{print $4}') and put a condition to eliminate using "if". However, I could not figure out how to transpose every nth line on that column to new row.
input:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
desired output:
1 4 7
2 5 8
3 6 9
I have checked out the other solutions and tried but none of them gave me what I want. I will appreciate if anyone could help me with that.
you can also use pr here
$ seq 9 | pr -3ts' '
1 4 7
2 5 8
3 6 9
$ seq 9 | pr -5ts' '
1 3 5 7 9
2 4 6 8
where the number indicates how many columns you need and the s option allows to specify the delimiter between columns
Using awk:
$ seq 9 |
awk ' {
i=((i=NR%3)?i:3) # index to hash a
a[i]=a[i] (a[i]==""?"":" ") $1 # space separate items to a[i]
}
END {
for(i=1;i<=3;i++) # from 1 to 3 (yes, hardcoded)
print a[i] # output
}'
Output:
1 4 7
2 5 8
3 6 9
The columns program from the autogen package can do this, e.g.:
seq 9 | columns --by-column -w1 -c3
Output:
1 4 7
2 5 8
3 6 9
Hi I was trying to paste multiple files (each with a single column but different number of rows) together. But it did't provide what I was expecting. How to solve that?
paste file1.txt file2.txt paste3.txt ... paste100 > out.txt
input file 1:
A
B
C
input file 2:
D
E
input file 3:
F
G
H
I
J
.......
......
Desired output:
A D F
B E G
C H
I
J
Would this be same if the files have multiple columns with different number of rows?
for example:
file1
A 1
B 2
C 3
file2
D 4
E 5
file3
F 6 %
G 7 &
H 8 #
I 9 #
J 10 ?
output:
A 1 D 4 F 6 %
B 2 E 5 G 7 &
C 3 H 8 #
I 9 #
J 10 ?
Isn't the default behaviour of paste exactly what you ask?
% paste <(echo "a
b
c
d") <(echo "1
2
3") <(echo "10
> 20
> 30
> 40
> 50
> 60")
a 1 10
b 2 20
c 3 30
d 40
50
60

I have an input file that looks like this (first column is a location number and the second is a count that should increase over time):
1 0
1 2
1 6
1 7

1 8
1 7
1 7
1 9
1 9
1 10

1 10
1 10
1 9
1 10
1 10
1 10
1 10
1 10
1 10
and I'd like to fix it look like this (substitute counts that decreased with the previous count):
1 0
1 2
1 6
1 7
1 7
1 8
1 8
1 8
1 9

I've been trying to use awk for this, but am stumbling with getline since I can't seem to figure out how to reset the line number (NR?) so it'll read each line and it's next line, not two lines at a time. This is the code I have so far, any ideas?
awk '{a=$1; b=$2; getline; c=$1; d=$2; if (a==c && b<=d) print a"\t"b; else print c"\t"d}' original.txt > fixed.txt
Also, this is the output I'm currently getting:
1 0
1 6
1 7
1 7
1 9
1 10
1 9
1 10
1 10
1 9
1 10
1 10
1 10
Perhaps all you want is:
awk '$2 < p { $2 = p } { p = $2 } 1' input-file
This will fail on the first line if the value in the second column is negative, so do:
awk 'NR > 1 && $2 < p ...'
This simply sets the second column to the previous value if the current value is less, then stores the current value in the variable p, then prints the line.
Note that this also slightly modifies the spacing of the output on lines that change. If your input is tab-separated, you might want to do:
awk 'NR > 1 && $2 < p { $2 = p } { p = $2 } 1' OFS=\\t input-file
This script will do what you like:
{
if ($2 < prev_count)
$2 = prev_count
else
prev_count = $2
printf("%d %d\n", $1, $2)
}
This is a verbose version to be easily readable :)
I have a file like this: (data.dat)
1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2
3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3
4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 7
5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 9
6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 7 6 7
7 9 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 8 7 9
8 10 8 9 8 9 8 8 8 8 8 9
9 11 9 10 9 9 9 9 9 10
10 12 10 11 10 10 10 11
The odd columns are simple line counters (NR), the even columns are simple values. I would like to get those values, in which the second (or even) colum values are the same in all even columns, i.e. I should get this output:
1
2
3
9
I have already tried to make this line, but something is wrong:
awk '{arr1[$1]=$2;arr2[$3]=$4;arr3[$5]=$6;arr4[$7]=$8;arr5[$9]=$10;arr6[$11]=$12;arr7[$13]=$14;arr8[$15]=$16;}END{for(x in arr1) if(x in arr2 && x in arr3 && x in arr4 && x in arr5 && x in arr6 && x in arr7 && x in arr8) print arr1[x];}' data.dat | sort -n
Is there a better way, by the way?
UPDATE: The real problem is that the array indices are different. So, the arr[...] method does not work... :(
This would work -
awk '
BEGIN{x=0}
{if (x<NF) x=NF;for (i=2;i<=NF;i+=2) a[$i]++}
END{x=x/2;for (y in a) if (x==a[y]) print y}' INPUT_FILE
Explanation:
We set a variable x=0 in the BEGIN statement.
We use this variable to get to find out maximum number of fields (This is useful later).
We store value of every second column to an array and get their number of occurrences.
We divide the variable x by 2 to verify maximum number a value can occur in every second column.
If the occurrences of numbers in an array matches this variable it means they are present in every second column.
Test: with your sample file
[jaypal:~/Temp] awk '
BEGIN{x=0}
{if (x<NF) x=NF;for (i=2;i<=NF;i+=2) a[$i]++}
END{x=x/2;for (y in a) if (x==a[y]) print y}' file

You can either pipe the output to sort -n to get it in order or use this -
awk '
BEGIN{x=0}
{if (x<NF) x=NF;for (i=2;i<=NF;i+=2) a[$i]++}
END{x=x/2;for (i=1;i<=length(a);i++) if (x==a[i]) print i}' INPUT_FILE
Your example works with just a simple;
awk '{if($2==$4 && $2==$6 && $2==$8 && $2==$10 && $2==$12 && $2==$14 && $2==$16) print $1}' test.txt | sort -n
Any other requirements I'm missing?
EDIT: Apparently with the missing columns you added :) Try
awk '{if(NF>1) { found=1; for(i=4; i<NF+1; i+=2) { if($2!=$i) { found=0; } } } if(found) print $1}' test.txt | sort -n
In your input data row # 9 doesn't have all even columns same so not sure how you show 9 in your desired output. You can try following awk command to print 1st col for your task:
awk '{same=0; prev=-1; for(i=2;i<=NF;i+=2) {if (prev != -1 && prev != $i) {same=1; break;} else prev=$i;} if (same==0) print $1;}' awk '{same=0; prev=-1; for(i=2;i<=NF;i+=2) {if (prev != -1 && prev != $i) {same=1; break;} else prev=$i;} if (same==0) print $1;}'
