Answer Posted / kalone
First load both the files into 2 arrays and then sort them
on say ASC criteria and then take the first element from 1
file and compare with the element of other file , if
matches write into Outfile ,like wise we can keep on
reading & comparing till we get all the matching values in
the outfile.
