( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

This thing is easy if you know that each file will have an exact match of records. Much less easy if you can have missing lines in one of the files or the other.

I wrote a program doing comparison between to very large files, handling all the cases of records existing in one file and not in the other with all the special cases (file A finished before B, or the other way) is not really trivial.

I am working on transforming this program into a module as generic as possible, but, unfortunately, it is not ready to be used.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
