I have a csv file that looks like:
data/train/4/36280.png,four
data/train/2/10317.png,two
data/train/2/57890.png,two
data/train/1/53448.png,one

data/train/9/18562.png,nine
data/train/8/46629.png,eight
data/train/7/1746.png,seven
Where first column is path and second is class. I would like to change the second column conditionally. In pseudo code I want something like:
If second column "four" change it to the next row's class
So far I've tried just to see if I can change ne class to another, but without success:
awk ' if ($2 == "zero") $2="one"; print $0 ' train.csv > new_file.csv
gives me the same csv.
Basically I would like a script that gives me following output csv:
data/train/4/36280.png,seven

bash solution:
readarray -t filename < <(cut -d ',' -f1 train.csv)
readarray -t class < <(cut -d ',' -f2 train.csv)
for (( i=0; i<$#filename[@]; i++ )); do
printf '%s,%sn' "$filename[$i]" "$class[$((i-1))]";
done > new_file.csv
Equivalent awk solution:
awk -F, '
filename[NR]=$1
class[NR]=$2
END
OFS=","
print filename[1],class[NR]
for (i=2;i<=NR;i++)
print filename[i],class[i-1]
' train.csv > new_file.csv
Both solutions first read the lines into arrays filename and class. Only difference is that the bash array starts with 0, the awk array with 1.
Then, we loop over the arrays and print the desired output. In the awk solution, we need to treat the first line separately as, unlike in bash, array[-1] does not return the last element.
The awk solution is a bit faster.
I tried it and it looks great! Could I ask how I would save this to a new CSV? I guess its putting > new_file.csv at the end maybe?
