I have a file that looks like this:
AA 110 B 2 .. BB 3 ... BBB 3 D F 3 D D
AA 111 B 2 .. BB 3 ... BBB 0 F F 0 F F
AA 112 C 2 .. BB 3 ... BBB 0 D F 0 D F
AA 120 D 2 .. FF 3 ... FFF 3 D F 3 D D
I would like to remove any line that contain the specific numerical value of 0. If I do:
sed '/0/d' infile > newfile
then lines 1 and 4 are deleted because they contain "0s" in 110 and 120. I tried other options with grep grep -v '0' infile > newfile
or awk but no luck.
I'm sure there is a straightforward way for doing this but cannot find it. Any thoughts?
Thanks!
