Find inconsistent lines from two bash files

Question

I am still new to bash and I have found similar questions for mine, but I still cannot solve my problem. I have two files with two columns separated by a space.

file 1:

1 AGCATTTTTCAAACGAAAGATTTACTACCGATGTGT  
2 TGCTCACCAACAAAAACAGGCGTCTCAGCAGCAGCA  
3 GATCGAACCGGCTGCCTACTGCGTGTAAAGCCGCCC  
4 CCGACACAGAGAACATTAGAATACTCAGAGCCATNN   
5 TAAGCCTGAGCCTAAACCTAAGCCTAAACATAAGAA  
6 AGCAGAGAAGAGATGAGTTGTCGAGTGAGGCGTAAG  
7 AACGTTGAAAAATTATCCCGTCAACAGTCTCCAGAA  
8 GCCAGAGAGTAAAATATTGGGTGAAGCCAGAGAGTA  
9 TGCTCACCAACAAAAACAGGCGTCTCAGCAGCAGCA  

file 2:

1 AGCATTTTTCAAACGAAAGATTTACTACCGATGTGT  
2 TGCTCACCAACAAAAACAGGCGTCTCAGCAGCAGCA  
3 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN  
4 CCGACACAGAGAACATTAGAATACTCAGAGCCATNN  
5 TAAGCCTGAGCCTAAACCTAAGCCTAAACATAAGAA  
6 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN  
7 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN  
8 GCCAGAGAGTAAAATATTGGGTGAAGCCAGAGAGTA  
9 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

I would like to compare only two columns of each file, string lines and output the third file with only non-matching lines.

output:

3 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
6 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
7 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
9 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

Answer 1

You can use awk:

awk 'NR==FNR{a[$2];next} !($2 in a)' file1 file2
3 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
6 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
7 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
9 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

Explanation:

NR == FNR {                  # While processing the first file
  a[$2]                      # just push the second field in an array
  next                       # move to next record of first file
}
!($2 in a)                   # print lines from file2 if array a doesn't that line

Answer 2

grep -vf file1 file2

Conclusion:

3 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
6 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
7 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
9 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

Answer 3

diff . diff .

/test>diff file1 file2
3c3
< 3 GATCGAACCGGCTGCCTACTGCGTGTAAAGCCGCCC
---
> 3 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
6,7c6,7
< 6 AGCAGAGAAGAGATGAGTTGTCGAGTGAGGCGTAAG
< 7 AACGTTGAAAAATTATCCCGTCAACAGTCTCCAGAA
---
> 6 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
> 7 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
9c9
< 9 TGCTCACCAACAAAAACAGGCGTCTCAGCAGCAGCA
---
> 9 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

Grepping :

/test>diff file1 file2 | grep ">"
> 3 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
> 6 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
> 7 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
> 9 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
