If one would like to compare the values of 2nd column of consecutive lines of same file in such a way so that if the difference between first value and second value is more than 100 it should print complete line else ignore line.
Input File:
=======
ABC 2500
ABCD 123
XYZ 122
WXYZ 2565
Desired Output:
==========
ABC 2500 (i.e. difference between 2500 and 123 is greater than 100 here)
XYZ 122 (i.e. difference between 122 and 2565 is greater than 100 here)
Command:
=======
awk 'NR % 2 != 0 {a=$1; b=$2} NR % 2 == 0 {if (b - $2 > 100 || $2 - b > 100){print a,b}}' inputfile
