Compare similar files with numeric fields
Numdiff is a console application that can be used to compare putatively similar files line by line and field by field, ignoring small numeric differences or/and different numeric formats. It is similar diff or wdiff, but it is aware of floating point numbers including complex and multi-precision numbers. Numdiff is useful to compare text files containing numerical fields, when testing or doing quality control in scientific computing or in numerical analysis.
