in reply to Re (tilly) 2: Detect common lines between two files, one liner from shell in thread Detect common lines between two files, one liner from shell
Sorry, I'm new to this and I don't have too much time to read the tutorials, but this I still don't understand
$seen{$_} I know $_ is the current stream.
.= is like adding it at the end. But what is that
hash /10$/ ? But this only matches the exact
line length it doesn't look for a the same word.
what if I want to find a word in both files and print it out on screen?
Thanks.

I refuse to repeat the documentation until you have at least
tried to read it. That is why it is there and it is
faster for both of us if you take advantage of it.
As for your additional question, the -n option is an
implicit loop over the lines in both
files. If you want to do words, then within each line you
would need to loop over the words as well. But the same
logic would work. (OTOH the algorithm will get rather
inefficient. But oh well.) | [reply] |
