Hello,

My input files have following. I need to compute counts that fall in each interval mention in FILE2 using third column in FILE1.

I am looking for ways other then using SQLITE. My FILE1 has more than 10 million lines so linear search is not a good option.

File1:

so 10 0.05

so 11 0.03

so 25 0.15

so 35 0.3

so 36 0.25

so 37 1

ge 14 0.12

ge 20 0.4

File2:

so 10 20

so 30 40

ge 10 30

sample output:

so 0.08

so 1.55

ge 0.52

Thanks in advance,

rkk
