What do you mean "if two consecutive records have an equal readings". The code takes into consideration if two fields have same values the n sort it via score.


#!/tools/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;
use Data::Dumper;

open DATA, "file1" or die $!;
my %recordsArray;
my $header = <DATA>;     #capture the header line
my @headers = split(/\t+/,$header);
while(my $line = <DATA>){
    chomp($line);
    my @records = split(/\t+/,$line);
#    print "@records";
    my $score = $records[2];
    my $value = $records[3];
    $recordsArray{$score}{$value} = $line; 
    }

print $header,"\n";
foreach my $score (reverse sort keys %recordsArray){
    foreach my $value (reverse sort keys %{$recordsArray{$score}}){
        print $recordsArray{$score}{$value},"\n";
    }
}
