I am trying to save the unique values by comparing two files in a variable as
commonWords=$(uniq -d <(sort <(sort -u words2.txt) <(sort -u words1.txt)))
echo "${commonWords}" >> results/common-english.txt
however its giving error
script.sh: command substitution: line 63: syntax error near unexpected token `('
script.sh: command substitution: line 63: `uniq -d <(sort <(sort -u words2.txt) <(sort -u words1.txt))'
