I have a script where I need to print the array contents in the same line of the previous print statement. Here array is dynamic in size and I have already one print statement which shows column wise output.
For example: let array having 3 contents (arr[1]=2,arr[2]=4,arr[3]=6), min=100, max=200. I have print statement which is printing column wise result.
gawk '{
...
...
print "Min:" min "\tMax:" max
for (itr in arr)
print arr[i] " "
}' script.txt
Expected Output:
Min:100 Max:200 2 4 6
My output:
Min:100 Max:200
2
4
6
Please suugest me an approach, how to append the array contents in previous print result.
Try using echo it has -n option to skip printing newline at the end.
gawk '{
...
...
echo -n "Min:" min "\tMax:" max
for (itr in arr)
echo -n arr[i] " "
}' script.sh
Another Approach
gawk '{
...
...
printf "Min:" min "\tMax:" max
for (itr in arr)
printf arr[i] " "
}' script.sh
Please refer echo documentation.
