Manipulating Strings In A File Scanner
Feb 25, 2014
I was given a text file that has list of names phone numbers, calls in and out etc... Like this
Adams#Marilyn#8233331109#0#0#01012014#C
Anderson#John#5025559980#20#15#12152013#M
Baker-Brown#Angelica#9021329944#0#3#02112014#C
The # are delimiters between data items and each line has the call status as the last item. I need to know how I can display each persons information on the screen in a format such as:
Name Phone Calls Out Calls In Last Call
Marilyn Adams (823) 333-1109 0 0 01-01-2104
John Anderson (502) 555-9980 20 15 12-15-2013
Angelica Baker-Brown (859) 254-1109 11 5 02-11-2014
I have to use substring method to extract the phone number and add parentheses/dashes ect I also must have a while statement and a delimiter...
So Far my code looks like this Also I am in a beginners Java coding class....
import java.util.Scanner;
import java.io.*;
public class phonedata2_1 {
public static void main (String[] args) throws IOException {
String Phonefile, FirstName, LastName;
Scanner PhoneScan, fileScan;
[Code] ....

I am having a great deal of frustration trying to use the scanner to get user input from the eclipse console. Here is what I am trying to do.
Print a menu for the user with options, take that (1) char input and run it into a switch statement for processing. I have that done and it is working fine.
If the user chooses to enter strings for storage, They are instructed to enter their string and press enter to complete that string entry. Then enter the next string and press enter, etc.
So I have a While loop for this. Get the scanner input, store it in the LinkedList, get the next scanner input, etc. I get the scanner string and store it in a Linked list. That works fine. The user is instructed to simply enter a blank string to end the entry procedure, like just press Enter on the new line without typing a new string.
The problem is the scanner doesn't seem to return anything for me to Test to close this procedure. How do I TRAP the fact that the user just pressed enter so I can end my procedure? I have tried next() and nextLine() and reset(), etc. And I am getting knowhere.

Basically, I'm just trying to let the user enter the name. It crashes whenever the input isn't an int. Also, here's the bit of code I'm using that has to do with that. I don't feel like putting the entire class, so here's that bit of code:
PHP Code: String yourName = user.nextLine(); mh_sh_highlight_all('php');
Anyway, I just haven't figured out how. Also, the scanner is called user in this class.

I'm having some kind of weird problem reading input from a file. It says that my scanner object I'm using to hold an item of information isn't initialized, when I do try to initialize it, it says error variable already initialized. I'm using the scanner to read input from a file whose contents are this

88.4
-3.14
499.4
799.4
1299.8

import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
public class QudratullahMommandi_3_07 {
Toolkit_General toolKit = new Toolkit_General();
public static void main (String[]args)throws IOException
[Code] .....
This is the error message

String holder2 = holder2.trim();

Java Code:
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class PrintALongFile{
public static void main(String[] args) throws FileNotFoundException{
File inFile = new File("C:VeryLongFile.txt");
[Code] .....
When I try to read from a file that's 4,075,904 lines long and 41,646KB in size, it wont go past line 1,266,471. The above code is simplified from my actual program, which actually prints out the results to another file. However, the console (Eclipse IDE) and the output file, both show that it's stopping at the same line.
How can I read the to the very end of my file?

I have a simple txt file, each line simply containing 1 word.I would like each work to represent an index of the array..im having some difficulty populating an array from either a txt file or a scanner.i seem to be able to fill the scanner so to speak with the contents of the text file but not the array. I don't know how to syntax it

I get a null pointer error on line 17 of the following fragment. I suspect it has to do with the way I am reading the file, but I'm unsure. I can provide more information or code if necessary.

I have a code that imports a text file [URL] .... and has a variety of methods for sorting through it. The file is structured differently when loaded into the environment, as each line begins with a movie and lists all of its actors. Each line has a movie title, then its release date in parentheses, and then the actors in the movie all listed and separated by slashes (Ex: /lastname 1, firstname 1/lastname 2, firstname 2/etc.....
Well I tried to create a method to search all the actors in the file for an inputted word and return the ones that have that word somewhere in their names. I managed to get it to work, but the code only runs for one line of it. How should I get this to do what its doing, but for EVERY line?
Code is here: [URL] ....

I'm a Java beginner and I've been trying to scan a file using the Java Scanner. I've tried searching online for this error and I only find people's questions who have entered an incorrect relative path. I'm entering in an absolute path and I'm using Eclipse Standard Edition on a 2013 MacBook Pro with Mavericks 10.9.2.
Anyway, the error message I'm receiving on Eclipse is: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: Unresolved compilation problem: Unhandled exception type FileNotFoundException
at App.main(App.java:12)
public class App {
public static void main(String[] args){
String fileName = "/Users/Student/Documents/index.html";
[code]...
Why it cannot find this file. I've checked the absolute file path of index.html on my Mac and I've copied and pasted it into my code.

I have strings in forms like s="(S (NP (DT This)) (VP (VBZ is) (NP (DT an) (JJ easy) (NN sentence))))"Programatically, I need to have words which end with ')' to be in an extra pair of brackets.. such that s = "(S (NP (DT (This))) (VP (VBZ (is)) (NP (DT (an)) (JJ (easy)) (NN (sentence)))))
Note that , words like "this" and "is" are now enclosed in brackets.I tried to create a program which would search for an alphabet followed by ')' and would put it in bracket... but then arrays can't have insertions in between.

I've got a .csv file with some text and numeric data. I've used BufferedReader to successfully print the data to the console. Now I need to perform mathematical operations on the numerical data. How do I access the data from the BufferedReader in my calculation methods?
This is what my BufferedReader looks like:
ReadCVS obj=new ReadCVS();
obj.run();
}
public void run(){
String csvFile = "myDataSet.csv";
BufferedReader buffread=null;
String row="";
[Code] .....
What I would like to be able to do is create some loops to calculate totals for some of the elements, but I'm not sure how to access the data from other methods (and potentially classes?).

I have to write a program that asks the user to enter the name of their favorite city and use string variable to store the input. The program should display the following:
-The number of characters in the city name
-The name of the city in all uppercase letters
-The name of the city in all lowercase letters
-The first character in the name of the city
However, I can't seem to get past the following errors;

I've been working my way through a tutorial to build a simple 2D tile-based engine that also allows the code to manipulate the colour of pixels on the screen based on a monochrome map read from a file. I've got the code right line for line, but I seem to have a bug when it comes to draw to the screen! At regular intervals, despite what is held in the pixel array of ints (which I have confirmed to be correct when debugging), I get the same row of pixels being draw twice in a row. I figured there was some loop issue somewhere, but after attempting to debug this for some time, I haven't come up with the answer.

how to sort my text file. So far I have been able to read the text file and print it back out, but I am unsure of how to go about sorting it. Must print the colors (in the order of the rainbow first) and if the colors are the same compare the size (bigger is more important)The values I have to sort are written as such in the text file:
blue 18
blue 10
red 27
yellow 4
public class Rainbow{
private String color;
private int size;
public Rainbow(String color, int size){
this.color = color;
this.size = size;
[code]....
I would know how to sort it if it was supposed to be alphabetical order or there were only numbers, but I can't seem to figure out how to sort it when there are strings and integers

I have a txtfile which I read and go through. My question is what are the ways I could do to read a txtfile of words and assign an empty score to each of the word in it. So each word will have a 0 value. Later on I will manipulate the score but for now I want each word to have a 0 score.What I have at the moment is reading a text file full of words eg:
private void readtextfile() {
try {
Scanner rd = new Scanner(
new File("filename"));
List<String> lines = new ArrayList<String>();
while (sc.hasNextLine()) {
lines.add(sc.nextLine());
[code]...
how to make each of the words to have a score of zero 0?

I am having an array of strings and i want to find out whether these strings contained in the array contain a similar character or not.For example i am having following strings in the array of string:
aadafbd
dsfgdfbvc
sdfgyub
fhjgbjhjd
my program should provide following result: 3 because i have 3 characters which are similar in all the strings of the array(f,b,d).

I am advised to use a while loop the Scanner method hasNextLine() and in the while loop body, call the Scanner method nextLine(), and add the returned String to the ArrayList of Strings. what I have gotten so far:
Scanner input = new Scanner(new File(""));
while(input.hasNextLine()) {
String line = input.nextLine();
System.out.println(line);

I have been trying to get this method to work for a few hours now, for some reason I get an IndexOutOfBounds exception every time. Basically I am trying to read a txt file and add the words to an ArrayList as strings separated by a space .
private ArrayList<String> readLinesFromFile(BufferedReader inputFile) throws IOException
{
String value = null;
ArrayList<String> result = new ArrayList<String>();
while((value = inputFile.readLine()) != null){
String[] values = value.split(" ");
for (int i = 0; i < values.length; i++){
result.add(values[i]);
}
}
return result;
}

I can sort strings in a collection by uppercase and then lowercase though I was wondering if there is any way of doing it in reverse, sorting by lowercase then by uppercase.

I wrote a piece of code:
for(int i = 0; i < x; i++){
System.out.println("Enter students full name:");
sName[i] = result.fullName(sc.nextLine());
sExam[i] = result.examName("VB");
System.out.println("Enter students exam score:");
int scor = sc.nextInt();
sScore[i] = result.examScore(scor);
sGrade[i] = result.examGrade(scor);
}
When i run it i get:
Enter number of students:
1
Enter students full name:
Enter students exam score:
The problem is, i cant enter "full name", program is just jumping to the next step "exam score".

why does sevenPointsOrLess only work if I declare it as a String and use next() instead of nextInt()? Also why does it take part of the next line with it?
Here is the text I am trying to scan:
England,3,0,1,2,0
Samoa,1,0,3,0,1
Code:
lineScanner.useDelimiter(",");
country = lineScanner.next();
Won = lineScanner.nextInt();
Drawn = lineScanner.nextInt();
Lost = lineScanner.nextInt();
fourOrMoreTries = lineScanner.nextInt();
sevenPointsOrLess = lineScanner.next();
Results:
country = "England"
Won = "3"
Drawn = "0"
Lost = "2"
fourOrMoreTries = "2"
sevenPointsOrLess = "0 Samoa"
