Hi all, I am wondering if you guys can help me out here: I have a log file containing information like this:
THU DEC 6 14:55:00 2001 111 222 333 444 FRI DEC 7 01:00:00 2001 555 666 777 888 SAT DEC 8 13:00:00 2001 xxx xxx xxx xxx SUN DEC 9 04:00:00 2001 xxx xxx xxx xxx MON DEC 10 12:00:00 2001 xxx xxx xxx xxx TUE DEC 11 09:00:00 2001 xxx xxx xxx xxx : : : & so on... Having the above log file with the first column containing the usual TIME, following by 4 columns of numerical data, I am thinking of having this program asking the user to input his/her desired starting date & ending date, and thus thereby extracting all the relevant 4 column datas corresponding to the above dates. What i'm trying to say is, lets say the user inputs START DATE to be THU DEC 6, and END DATE to be MON DEC 10. So my code will then extract all relevant data corresponding to THU DEC 6 (which is 111, 222, 333, 444) up till MON DEC 10. That means the code would've extracted all 5 rows of data with their corresponding 4 xxx columns (from start date to end date), and then putting it into a file. Is this possible? How do I code the above concept? Do advise me, thanks in advance!
