Re: List and count routine

List and count routine

I have a colon delimited file with usernames and claim codes.
I am looking for a routine to list the number of user claims per code.

For example, jones accesses to 2 codes A001 (twice) and A123 (once).
The desired output for the given input is displayed below:

input:
jones:A001
jones:A001
peters:A001
Peters:T909
nichols:A001
jones:A123


desired output:
jones (2) A001
jones (1) A123
peters (1) A001
peters (1) T909
nichols (1) A001

An awk solution would be helpful. Thanks

Re: List and count routine

Hi

These are all boolean AND conditions and many to many relationships. I don't think a shell script is suitable and I'm not good enough to answer in PERL. Wait a bit for JRF or another PERL guru's input on this.

In short, I could do but it'd be long and their are 3rd and 4th generation programming languages more suitable.

Re: List and count routine

a pretty fast way would be to use the "uniq" feature :)

# uniq -c filename.txt
2 jones:A001
1 peters:A001
1 Peters:T909
1 nichols:A001
1 jones:A123

This can then be chopped up:
# uniq -c oop23i4p |replace ":" " "| awk {'print $2 " (" $1 ") " $3}'
jones (2) A001
peters (1) A001
Peters (1) T909
nichols (1) A001
jones (1) A123

Best regards

Re: List and count routine

Replace "oop23i4p" with your filename, kinda just blabered something on the keyboard when creating the test file :P

don't assign me any points for this specific post

(awk /./|sort|uniq -c|awk -F: '{print $1,$2}'|awk '{print $2,"("$1")",$3}')

Re: List and count routine

Hi:

In Perl:

# perl -nle '$object{$_}++;END{for $key (sort keys %object) {@a=split /:/,$key;print $a[0]," (",$object{$key},") ",$a[1]}}' file

Regards!

Re: List and count routine

Hello,

You already got several excellent methods.

Here is another one in Perl.

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;

my @unique = ();
my @unique2 = ();
my %seen = ();
my @MyArr = ();
my @arr = ();
my $mycount = 0;
my %myhash;

while () {
chomp $_;
push(@MyArr, lc($_));
}

foreach my $elem (@MyArr)
{
$seen{$elem}++;
# my $result = sprintf("%-10s %s %5s\n", $arr[0], $arr[1], "($seen{$elem})");
$myhash{$elem} = "($seen{$elem})";
}

foreach my $hkey (keys %myhash) {
my @arr = split(/:/, $hkey);
my $result = sprintf("%-10s %5s %s\n", $arr[0], $myhash{$hkey}, $arr[1]);
# print "$hkey...$myhash{$hkey}\n";
print "$result";
}

exit(0);

__DATA__
jones:A001
jones:A001
peters:A001
Peters:T909
nichols:A001
jones:A123



When you run it, it formats the results as:

peters (1) a001
jones (2) a001
jones (1) a123
nichols (1) a001
peters (1) t909

Re: List and count routine

Hi (again):

By the way, using my Perl solution means that the username "peters" differs from "Peters", Hence using your exact input will produce this output:

Peters (1) T909
jones (2) A001
jones (1) A123
nichols (1) A001
peters (1) A001

My script produces sorted output, too. Had you had "peters:A001" and "Peters:A001" these too would have been treated as discrete keys.

Regards!
