Hi,
I have two files with many records with the format of :
Name N
valLine#1
valLine#2
...
valLine#N
N indicates how many following lines this records has.
I need to merge 2 such files, which is prety simple using 2 hashes, but I
want to add records from file1 (that are missing in file2) in the same
order/position to file2.
For example:
File1 is:
a 2
aa
aa
b 1
bb
c 1
cc
File 2 is:
a 2
aa
aa
c 1
cc
d 1
dd
I want record "b" from file 1 to be added after record "a". How can I
change the original solution (using 2 hashes and merge and checking
existance of keys) to suit this one too? I need a simple solution as
possible.
Thanks
Yossi
