Re^4: Compare fields in a file

in thread Compare fields in a file

If I add a few events to the input, this breaks. Try it with these data:

2550,531,66,10-12-2007 07:03:08.069,2 2549,529,62,10-12-2007 07:03:08.151,1 2550,531,66,10-12-2007 07:03:09.069,1 2549,529,62,10-12-2007 07:03:09.151,2 2550,531,66,10-12-2007 07:03:10.001,6 2550,531,66,10-12-2007 07:03:11.099,7

The output:

2550,531,66,10-12-2007 07:03:08.069,2 2549,529,62,10-12-2007 07:03:09.151,2 2550,531,66,10-12-2007 07:03:10.001,6 2550,531,66,10-12-2007 07:03:11.099,7

Ignore. I misread the specs.

Perhaps I've misunderstood the requirement but that output looks as I would have expected. Two events at time `07:03:08`, event with amplitude 2 chosen. Two events at time `07:03:09`, event with amplitude 2 chosen. A single event at time `07:03:10`, the only event (with amplitude 6) chosen. A single event at time `07:03:11`, the only event (with amplitude 7) chosen. So far as I can tell, that satisfies the requirement "I'd like to keep only the largest magnitude within each second" to the letter. Perhaps you could explain further in which way it is "broken."

Perhaps I've misunderstood the requirement (...) Oops, no, it seems that it's me who completely misread the OP's requirements. Sorry :(	[reply]
