Hi there,
I have a problem which I would like to use perl to resolve, however I'm not
sure if it is possible to do.
I need to scan a file and check some conditions, first if field 9 is
duplicated on 1 or more rows, then I need to check field 10 to see which is
the greater value and then only print the whole row where field 10 is the
greater, if field 9 is not a duplicate then print the whole row.
An example of the data is below.
