I have a datafile data.txt:
gene12 489 483 838gene82 488 763 920gene31 974 837 198gene45 489 101 378gene59 89 827 138
I have another data file genelist.txt that lists just genes I'm interested in for my study:
gene45gene59gene61
I want to modify the first dataset by removing all rows where the gene isn't found in the second list so basically end up with this array:
gene45 489 101 378gene59 89 827 138
How do I go about doing this?
