I've been doing some maths on a 3 field x 2 line file like this:
3216.01 2724.81 1708.25
1762.48 617.436 1650.79
My question is how do i refer to the first field on the first line and in the same calculation, refer to the first field in the second row?
And just for completion: I'm planning on taking $1 (line1) and minusing $1 (line2), then squaring and doing the same for the other columns and finally summing this value.
this line works with your requirement:
awk 'NR==1{for(i=1;i<=NF;i++)a[i]=$i}
NR==2{for(i=1;i<=NF;i++)s+=(a[i]-$i)^2; printf "sum: %.3f",s}' file
result:
sum: 6557076.288
Note
%.3f
, you could change it if you like EDIT
as suggested by EdMorton, the above codes could be written as:
awk 'NR==1{split($0,a)}
NR==2{for(i=1;i<=NF;i++)s+=(a[i]-$i)^2; printf "sum: %.3f\n",s}' file
very good suggestion, I didn't think of the split... thank Ed!
我通常会在一些临时变量中记录它
awk 'NR>1 {print $1-a} {a=$1}' inputfile
