Simulate GROUP BY with awk

Recently, I got a necessity of calculation an average value for each group of a data in my clipboard. To avoid creating a temporary file or using Excel for that, I used awk tool. Just writing it down for a future reference.

Example source data:

1
2
3
4
5
6
23100 1600
20500 1600
19400 1600
36900 512
43100 512
48000 512
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
$ # SUM
$ awk '{arr[$2]+=$1} END {for (i in arr) {print i, arr[i]}}'
512 128000
1600 63000
$ # AVG
$ awk '{arr_sum[$2]+=$1; arr_cnt[$2]+=1} END \
       {for (i in arr_sum) {print i, arr_sum[i]/arr_cnt[i]}}'
512 42666.7
1600 21000
