Dear experts,
I want to compare two lists containing sublists and make out of them 3
result lists.
The comparison applies to the first two elements of the sublists.
list1 = {{1, aa, 565}, {1, bb, 566}, {
1, cc, 546}, {2, dd, 56}, {2, ff, 56}, {2, ss, 5}}
list2 = {{1, aa,
34}, {1, bb, 66}, {1, cc, 5443}, {2, dd, 76}, {2, ff, 87}, {2, mm,
87}}
Result ONE should be:
If the FIRST element AND the SECOND elements of the sublists are equal,
then prepend the THIRD elements from list2.
result1={{1, aa, 565, 34}, {1, bb, 566, 66}, {
1, cc, 546, 5443}, {2, dd, 56, 76}, {2, ff, 56, 87}}
Result TWO should be:
the FIRST element OR the SECOND elements of the sublists are NOT equal,
then display the difference from the list1 perspective
result2={{2, ss, 5}}
Result THREE should be:
the FIRST element OR the SECOND elements of the sublists are NOT equal,
then display the difference from the list2 perspective
result3={{2, mm, 87}}
Thanks for your help
