Hi David,
Sorry. I want to test  those lines in file1 match name in file2.

IF File1$Name == File2$Name then:
      check if File1$X is in range of File2$(x,y):

Not an adequately specific bit os pseudo code.

            if yes:
                 print File1$Name '\t' File1$X  '\t'  File2$Name '\t'
File2$X '\t' File2$Y.


So your example only provides three rows that should be considered, the ones with Name, "UK", right? What do you expect as a result? Obviously row 3 won't be in any of the ranges, but 199 is in range for row 2 for file2 and 230 is also in range for row 2 in file2.


Thanks
Adrian

Hi:

I have a two large files (over 300K lines).

file 1:

Name    X
UK       199
UK       230
UK       139
......
UAE    194
UAE     94




File 2:

Name   X    Y
UK    140   180
UK    195    240
UK    304    340
....


I haven't figured out what you are expecting. Cannot tell whether you want to make this test a) all file1$X within values of "Name" or b) all file1$X across all values, or c) to pick a specific line in file1, or d) file1$X on a line by line basis in file2. This implements that last of those three and
has the downside of generating warnings.

file1[file2[, "X"] < file1[, "X"] & file1[, "X"] < file2[,"Y"], ]
 Name   X
2   UK 230
Warning messages:
1: In file2[, "X"] < file1[, "X"] :
 longer object length is not a multiple of shorter object length
2: In file1[, "X"] < file2[, "Y"] :
 longer object length is not a multiple of shorter object length


I want to select X of File 1 and search if it falls in range of X and Y of File 2 and Print only those lines of File 1 that are in range of
File 2 X and Y


How can it be done it in R.

thanks
Adrian
