Hi Everybody,

I have the following example file...

I am looking for a AWK or PERL solution (A single line code is highly prefered) to produce the following...

199|TST-GURGAON|GURGAON|9
1|TST - MAIN LAB|DELHI|3
333|TST-PREET VIHAR|DELHI|4
61B|PARNAMI X-RAY & CLINICAL LAB|DELHI|1
650|PUNJABI BAGH|DELHI|3
871|GREATER NOIDA C.C|GREATER NOIDA|8
897|NETAJI NAGAR C.C|DELHI|1
VK1|NATIONAL DIAGNOSTICS|PATNA|8

Basically the I am looking to print the total count based on the first field.

Could any body from you may give me a hand please ?

Regards - Sraj142

Hi itkamaraj,

Big Thanks for your reply. One thing is happening here...

  • Field 2 and 3 are not being displayed.

Any hint please ?

Regards.

like this.. ?

its ur responsibility to remove the first pipe symbol and adding the pipe symbol in last before field. modify the code

 
$ nawk -F"\|" ' { for(i=1;i<NF;i++)str=str"|"$i; arr[str]++; str="" } END { for( no in arr) { print no , arr[no] } } ' test

Hi itkamaraj,

Big many thanks for giving me a good start. I have got with the following code...

nawk -F"\|" ' { for(i=1;i<NF;i++)str=str"|"$i; arr[str]++; str="" } END { for( no in arr) { print no,"|", arr[no] } } ' upload.dat | 
  awk 'BEGIN {FS="|"} {sep="|"} {print $2 sep $3 sep $4 sep $5}' | sed '1,$s/ | /|/g'

Regards.
