I forgot to say that the extra lines are empty... but I don't understand
why they are there :)
HI,
I want to create a simple script where I am parsing a file and writing
only the lines where I can find a certain value in a new output file
this is my Infile format: workable example attached
I want to keep only the lines where there is a 1 not the ones with -1,
there are 10 in this example and when I produce my outfile it is 20
lines long! They are duplicated and I am not sure why, I would
appreciate any advise. the example infile attached contain 50 and
produce a outfile of 100...
