I would like to subset a large file based on elements in another file in bash. Here is an example data for the first file:
Col1,Col2,Col3
A,10,50
B,10,05
C,20,30
B,20,03
A,30,100
C,30,111
D,40,120
The second file is:
A
B
C
I would to save subset of file1 with first column takes value "A" to A.txt; and "B" to B.txt, and so on.
Before I am using
awk '$1=="A"' file1.txt > A.txt
but now I have to deal with 100+ different names in the second file, looking for a better way to get the job done. Thanks!!!
