Merging data from multiple files












-1















So in my case I have multiple Linux VM's and each one of them there is a file called
output.txt (or other extension like excel?). They look like:



Average download time:8647
Average whatever : 153


Now I want to merge them all into one file with the average results from all files.
Which files extension is best to use or how it can be done with simple txt?

  • Are the files in plain text format, or microsoft excel, or something else? What exactly are in the two (or more) different files, and how exactly do you want to merge them? Just cat them all together, or add some numbers (which ones) and find their averages?

  • I've catted them together and used the following awk awk ' { c[$1]++; for (i=2;i<=NF;i++) { s[$1"."i]+=$i}; } END { for (k in c) { printf "%st", k; for(i=2;i<NF;i++) printf "%.1ft", s[k"."i]/c[k]; printf "%.1fn", s[k"."NF]/c[k]; } }' full.txt >> resulting.txt

  • Is that your own answer then? You could post it as an answer, and editing samples of the files into the original question would be helpful too
