Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Dear Monks
I have 6 files in which there is two columns per line. I want to compare the first column and each file filed by field, and get the maximum one, retrieve the second column value corresponding to the max value.
for example if I have in my 6 files like this:
I want to retrive 2, since 2 is the value corresponding to 4 which is the max value of the first column and each file. Any idea what is the best way to do it?
