Print awk output into new column - bash

Question

I have lot of files modified (after filtration) and I need to print NR and characters about new files into column - lets see example:
input files: x1, x2, x3, y1, y2, y3, z1, z2, z3 ...
script:
for i in x* y* z*
do awk -v h=$i 'END{c+=lenght+1 ;print h "\t" NR "\t" c}' >> stats.txt
done;
my output looks like:
x1 NR c
x2 NR c
x3 NR c
y1 NR c
y2 NR c
y3 NR c
z1 NR c
z2 NR c
z3 NR c
And I need to save each loop to new column no line:
x1 NR c y1 NR c z1 NR c
x2 NR c y2 NR c z2 NR c
x3 NR c y3 NR c z3 NR c
to keep corresponding files (after filtration) on the same line. I hope I am clear. I need to do this in BASH and awk. Thank you for any help!!
EDITED:
the real output look like:
x 0.457143 872484
y 0.527778 445759
z 0.416667 382712
x 0.457143 502528
y 0.5 575972
z 0.444444 590294
x 0.371429 463939
y 0.694444 398033
z 0.56565 656565
.
.
.
and I need:
x 0.457143 872484 0.457143 502528 0.371429 463939
y 0.52777 445759 0.5 575972 0.694444 398033
.

I hope it is clear..

Try this:
cat data | tr -d , | awk '{for (i = 1; i <= NF; i += 3) print $i " NR c " $(i+1) " NR c " $(i+2) " NR c"}'
Output:
x1 NR c x2 NR c x3 NR c
y1 NR c y2 NR c y3 NR c
z1 NR c z2 NR c z3 NR c
Same table but transposed (for your task variant):
cat data | tr -d , | awk '{for (i = 1; i <= NF/3; i += 1) print $i " NR c " $(i+3) " NR c " $(i+6) " NR c"}'
Output:
x1 NR c y1 NR c z1 NR c
x2 NR c y2 NR c z2 NR c
x3 NR c y3 NR c z3 NR c
For your task update check the following solution (using bash):
cat data | sort | while read L;
do
y=`echo $L | cut -f1 -d' '`;
{
test "$x" = "$y" && echo -n " `echo $L | cut -f2- -d' '`";
} ||
{
x="$y";echo -en "\n$L";
};
done
(from my solution for similar problem)
Updated script after comment:
sort data | while read L
do
y="`echo \"$L\" | cut -f1 -d' '`"
if [ "$x" = "$y" ]
then
echo -n " `echo \"$L\" | cut -f2- -d' '`"
else
x="$y"
echo -en "\n$L"
fi
done
