I have a file with three consecutive blank lines. I want to delete two and keep one.Also, if anyone could direct me towards a guide on regular expressions particularly as they apply to sed, I would be grateful. I am having a hell of a time figuring out the syntax.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have a series of input files formatted like this:
Code:
RTREVF, KOG3266 = 111
RTREVF, KOG3294 = 130
RTREVF, KOG3295 = 177
WAGF, KOG3307 = 107
JTTF, KOG3320 = 174
Each line represents a portion of a data matrix. I want to convert the numbers after the "=" to the range of that partition in the matrix such that the output file looks like this:
Code:
RTREVF, KOG3266 = 1-111
RTREVF, KOG3294 = 112-241
RTREVF, KOG3295 = 242-418
WAGF, KOG3307 = 419-525
JTTF, KOG3320 = 526-699
in the shell. how do i compare 2 text files and change matching lines in one of the files ?
example:
cat file_1.txt
line_1
[code]...
how can I set the cat command to read specified lines of a text file,like if I have a text file with 100 lines, who can I say cat only line 23 to 42?

How would I go about reading the values for each Person, then being able to perform mathematical equations for each Person (finding the sum for example)?
i tried using diff --GTYPE-group-format= with <%, but not sure that right solution.Here's what im trying to do. I have two c source files, file1 and file2. file1 has a function in it that's been modified in file2. However, the functions begin at differnt line numbers in eachof the files. Is there a way to specify a range of file numbers on file1 and file2 to compare, using diff or any other combination of utilities? I can always output text from a range of lines from each file to two separate and new files and then compare those, but that's tedious. I could also write up a script to automate this type of solution, but I imagine there's an existing way of doing this.

How do I compare the timestamp of two files? I tried this but it doesn't work:
file1time=`stat -c %Y fil1.txt`
file2time=`stat -c %Y file2.txt`
[code]....
I printed both the time stamps, in order and it gives me
1273143480
1254144394
./script.sh: line 13: [1273143480: command not found
So basically if comparision is not working, I guess. Or if there is any other nice way than what I am doing, please let me know.
Edit: There was no space in between if, so changing it to this works:
if [ $file1time -gt $file2time ]
I have many files with info about soft, installed on remote machines.
I need to compare this file with template (soft than must be installed) and output file must content info about software that's not installed.
Code:
Code:
output must be software_name2, becouse it is not installed, but software_name3.2 is good enough becouse version is more than we need.
So, the task is to show lines that is in template and not in source, using simple regular expressions
I use grep
Code:

Code:
But it shows me only lines that is in source and not in template etc...
I am using C++ with SQLite db in a program that will read read a sub set of records, compare records and write different records to another database. I have a SQLite book, but it only shows examples for the C API. Anyone have code samples in C++ for the following:
Open database
Close
Select *
Read
Write
Or, just show me how to execute a SQL statement with C++ and I can then figure out the various SQL statements I need.
I want to find and remove duplicate consecutive words from a text file. I've tried working with array but is very difficult..then i've tried using sed...somebody hint me with this sed :
sed ':f;N;$!bf; s/(.*)
1/1
/g; s/(.*)1/1/g'.
It works fine but if i have 3 consecutive identical words it only remove first one and the last two remain intact.
I'm looking for a way to insert the number of lines in a file to the start of the aformentioned file. This should be simple but as I am not used to scripts in Linux, I am finding it tough going. I can find the number of lines in a file easily enough via
filesize=$(awk 'END {print NR}' $1)
but as for inserting this into the first line, i'm failing to do so. I've tried some of the other approaches on these forums but none so far have been able to do so.
I've tried:
sed '1i$filesize' $1
but sed i requires a string, not a variable so no go I've also tried:
mv "$1" "${1}.bak" 2>/dev/null || touch "${1}.bak"
cat $filesize "${1}.bak" >"$1"
but again with no luck as cat seems to need an input stream Just to recap, i want to insert a line at the start of a given file that holds the number of lines the original file has.
ie the file:
a
b
c
d
e
should become:
5
a
b
c

It's not a good idea to unzip it first due to its big size.

I'm trying to output two certain fields of a very large text file to 2 very small text files. Then take those files and add all the lines together to come up with a total from each file (two totals).
Here's what I've got:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
echo "0" > /media/in.txt
echo "0" > /media/out.txt
[code]....
Breakdown: Put 0 in a text file to be drawn by respective while loops for math later
Output last 60 integers to a file for total A (new integer every minute)
Output last 60 integers to a file for total B (new integer every minute)
The two while loops are supposed to be adding the lines together. The echo commands at the end are for testing purposes, just to see the output. However, when I run this, I get the output of
Code:
0 0
Which is obviously not what it's supposed to be. Is there a more efficient way to do this or am I missing something in the script that would reset the values to "0"?
