Solaris : Sort numerical values












2















I have a file with following values.



keyword1 19.02 1.69.94

keyword2 19.01 1.68.118

keyword3 19.02 1.69.119

keyword4 19.01 1.68.115

keyword5 19.02 1.69.304

keyword6 19.02 1.69.39


I want these to be sorted based on 3rd column.



In Linux, the following command using version sort works.



raj@VirtualBox:$ grep 19.02 file.txt | sort -t ' ' -k3 -V

keyword6 19.02 1.69.39

keyword1 19.02 1.69.94

keyword3 19.02 1.69.119

keyword5 19.02 1.69.304


On Unix(Solaris) the version sort seems to be missing. I searched around for working alternative on Solaris, but couldn't find one.



I can also use a solution in python.






shell-script shell python solaris sort

  • Note that the -V option to sort in your grep 19.02 file.txt | sort -t ' ' -k3 -V example is a non-standard, non-portable GNU extension to the POSIX sort utility.

You could try reversing the fields and using . as the field separator:



awk '{print $3,$2,$1}' your_file |

   sort -nt. -k1,1 -k2,2 -k3,3 |

   awk '{print $3,$2,$1}'


Also, my solaris system has GNU sort (same as in linux) in /usr/gnu/bin/sort and I don't remember having ever installed it ;-)

    You mentioned python - the following is a python2 solution that will hopefully work in whatever python2 version exists on your Solaris machine



    lines = open('file.txt').readlines()
    
lines = [l.split() for l in lines]
    
lines = [line for line in lines if line[1] == "19.02"]
    
def sorter(x):
    
    z = x[-1].split(".")
    
    return x[0], x[1], [int(y) for y in z]
    

    
lines.sort(key=sorter)
    
for line in lines:

                      Is this a new Fibonacci Identity?

                      Image
                      6 1 $begingroup$ I have found the following Fibonacci Identity (and proved it). If $F_n$ denotes the nth Fibonacci Number, we have the following identity begin{equation} F_{n-r+h}F_{n+k+g+1} - F_{n-r+g}F_{n+k+h+1} = (-1)^{n+r+h+1} F_{g-h}F_{k+r+1} end{equation} where $F_1 = F_2 = 1$ , $r leq n$ , $h leq g$ , and $n, g, k in mathbb{N}$ . It is not too hard to show that this identity subsumes Cassini's Identity, Catalan's Identity, Vajda's Idenity, and d'Ocagne's identity to name a few. I have done a pretty thorough literature review, and I have not found anything like this, but I am still wondering if anyone has seen this identity before? I found this by accident after noticing some patterns in some analysis work I was doing, so if this is already known I would be curious to see w...
