Hello,
I'm trying to map two files INPUT1 to INPUT2. I
believe that I've made a syntax error somewhere
because I'm not retrieving any ouput; yet I know that
there are IDs in INPUT2 (via $id2) that exist in
INPUT1 (via $id_1b).
Also, is there a general, more efficient, way to map
files that contain similar identifier strings?
Thank you for any advice,
David
foreach $line2 (<INPUT2>) {
($id2,$remainder) = split(/\t/,$line2,2);
foreach $line1 (<INPUT1>) {
($id_1a,$id_1b) = split (/\t/,$line1,2);
chomp($id_1b);
if ($id2 eq $id_1b) {
print OUTPUT "$id2\t$id_1a\t$remainder";
} else {
next;
}
}
}
