I have two scripts, A and B.
I want to execute them and read respectively two values. V and VALS.
V is just a floating point number, let's say 0.5
VALS has the following format:
1 10
2 20
3 60
4 45
and so on.
What I'm trying to do is to get a new variable where the second column of VALS (10, 20, ...) is divided by V.
As I understand this can be implemented with a mix of xargs and cut but I'm not really familiar with these tools.
#!/bin/bash
V=`./A`
VALS=`./B`
RESULT=#magic happens
The final result with the previous data should be:
1 20
2 40
3 120
4 90
Bash's builtin arithmetic expansion only works for integers. You can use awk
for data extraction and floating point numbers.
V=`./A`
# No VALS needed
RESULT=($(./B | awk "{print \$2 / $V"}))
Note the escaped dollar sign in \\$2
