Hi,

I want to write a perl script to do something like this

 

Abc 12.8 8 "left" 1 15.7

Def 13.8 9 "top" 0 19.7

gef 14.8 9 "left" 0 19.7

Dgf 12.3 9 "right" 4 99.6

cef 16.8 4 "right" 0 89.7

baf 32.8 7 "bottom" 5 79.8

efg 16.8 5 "right" 0 56.7

etg 12.8 2 "left" 7 34.7

 

 

Just say I want to sort the row based on the value on fifth or third column, any advice how to do so?

 

 

Thank you & best regards,

ABC
