Compare Column wise multiple files in Unix
0
I want to compare 2 files like mentioned below.
File 1
123 |245 |abcd |yuu
9999|1111|ujwij|6565
File 2
123 |245 |^&27hdj|y2o
9999|1111|00023 |6565
Expected Output
Record Number | Column No
1 | 3
1 | 3
How do I create a unix command or script for this as I have multiple files for this as number of columns vary with different scenarios.
Also I wanted to listen these 2 files from different path and generate the differences in output file.
awk

It's great that you've provided sample input and expected output - but could you also please explain in words how they are related?

I have 2 Records coming from source (file1) and in the (file2) target, Column No. 3,4 values gets changed due to some transformation.
