Good day,

I have a local csv file with values that change daily called DailyValues.csv
I need to extract the value field of category2 and category4.
Then combine, sort and remove duplicates (if any) from the extracted values.
Then save it to a new local file NewValues.txt.

Here is an example of the DailyValues.csv file:

category,date,value  
category1,2010-05-18,value01  
category1,2010-05-18,value02  
category1,2010-05-18,value03  
category1,2010-05-18,value04  
category1,2010-05-18,value05  
category1,2010-05-18,value06  
category1,2010-05-18,value07  
category2,2010-05-18,value08  
category2,2010-05-18,value09  
category2,2010-05-18,value10  
category2,2010-05-18,value11  
category2,2010-05-18,value12  
category2,2010-05-18,value13  
category2,2010-05-18,value14  
category2,2010-05-18,value30  
category3,2010-05-18,value16  
category3,2010-05-18,value17  
category3,2010-05-18,value18  
category3,2010-05-18,value19  
category3,2010-05-18,value20  
category3,2010-05-18,value21  
category3,2010-05-18,value22  
category3,2010-05-18,value23  
category3,2010-05-18,value24  
category4,2010-05-18,value25  
category4,2010-05-18,value26  
category4,2010-05-18,value10  
category4,2010-05-18,value28  
category4,2010-05-18,value11  
category4,2010-05-18,value30  
category2,2010-05-18,value31  
category2,2010-05-18,value32  
category2,2010-05-18,value33  
category2,2010-05-18,value34  
category2,2010-05-18,value35  
category2,2010-05-18,value07

I've found some helpful parsing examples at http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fgetcsv.php and managed to extract all the values of the value column but don't know how to restrict it to only extract the values of category2/4 then sort and clean duplicate.

The solution needs to be in php, perl or shell script.

Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
