Removing Specific Line From Text File That Contains Certain String?

Mar 8, 2014

So basically, if a line in a text file contains a certain string, that specific line will be deleted. It should probably be similair to this method?

Java Code:

/**
* Replace text.
* @param replace
* The text to replace.
* @param replaceWith
* The text to replace with.
*/
public static void replaceSelected(String replace, String replaceWith) {
try {
BufferedReader file = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("data/replacer.txt"));

Removing Specific Characters From A String

May 7, 2014

I just need to write a simple program/function that replaces certain letters from a string (i.e. censor( "college", "aeiou" ) returns "cllg"). I'm trying to get the code right first, and then write a function for it.I basically just thought that I would iterate over the first string, and once I had the first character, I would then iterate over the second string, to see if the character exists. I'm getting a "dead code" error on my second loop because I put the second "break."

public class ap {
public static void main(String [] args){
String s = "Hello";
String s2 = "aeiou";

Pickup Selected Text File And Read Line By Line And Output Text Into Visual Text Pane

Dec 12, 2014

I am checking how to do following task.

01. pickup the selected text file and read the line by line and output the text in to visual text pane.

what i did:.

01. I wrote code that read the text file and output in to jave console/ also some of the interface.

the code read txt file:

Java Code:

String fileName = "C:/Users/lakshan/Desktop/lawyer.txt";
File textFile = new File(fileName);
Scanner in = new Scanner (textFile);
while(in.hasNextLine()){

[code]....

so it will read any text file dynamically and output to the text pane in interface. I think scanner code must be execute after the select the file from the browser and set the scanned result in to variable. then later out put the var as string in some jswing component?

Changing Value In Specific Point Of Specific Line In TXT File

Feb 9, 2015

So here we go with my problem:

- from the main class will arrive three variable (String name_used, int level_choose, int level_result)

I have a .txt file with this kind of formatting:

mario 1 1 0 1 0 1
carlo 0 0 0 1 1 0
...

Where I use 1 and 0 in the main for write if the level (you see that the numbers are always sixr? are egual to six level existing) BEFORE is done correct or wrong

- when in the main a user make a level a feedback coming back from the class level saying if the user made the count correctly or wrong. and i wanna replace the value (1 or 0) in the txt file with the new level result.

So i have all what i need as parameters i think.

name_used to look for the correct line in .txt file with .indexOf
level_choosed to go throught the correct index of that line
level_result (1 or 2) to be replaced with the existing one

Java Code:

public void salvaRisultati(String name_used, int level_choosed, int result_of_level) throws FileNotFoundException{
}
} mh_sh_highlight_all('java');

Check Specific Value From A Specific Line From TXT File

Feb 8, 2015

I have some problem to understand the way to make this:

In my main class a user can save his name in a txt file (and the system initially will add 6 value equals to 0) than he can choose between 6 level and make it.

example of .txt file data:

mario 0 0 0 0 0 0
carl 0 0 0 0 0 0

AT THIS MOMENT i just made other class and they work, is this new one that is hard for me. I'm trying to make a class that:

1- (first method called verificaRisultati) take name_used and level_choosed from the main and go to check in the .txt file if that level before was done right(1) or wrong(0)

and return something like "before you made this level properly" or "before you made this level incorrectly" AND THEN let the user start with the level.

2- (second method called salvaRisultati) at the end of the level i wanna pass the result (correct/incorrect) to another method of this class that will save the value (1 or 0) associated to the user in the right position.

This is the class that i'm writing:

Java Code:

import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.FileReader;
public class ResultUsers {

[Code] ....

I really need some hint and some code example because I'm stuck. How I can take exactly the line with the user name? How I can correctly split the line in an array and then read/modify the value for that level?

Reading A Text File And Inserting Line Into String?

Dec 6, 2014

I am having issues insert each line of the simple textfile into a specific varible I want it to go to. For example my text file is ordered like this

Dallas

South, 10 mph
denverimage

and I want Dallas in city variable, 78f in temperature variable, and so on until text ends, at the moment is all goes into city variable, it all prints from there! I tried inserting it into an array but it would read all the lines previous to it in addition to reusing readline and all failed.

import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileReader;
import java.io.IOException;

Read Text File And Perform Operation On Specific Columns

Dec 9, 2011

I am somewhat of a java newbie (learned it awhile back and just getting back to programming some again.) I have a text file of data much larger than this, but here are the first ten rows and first 10 columns.

39755320111041730140.633038085-2.117082366149.069997
39850320111041730150.633038085-2.117082511148.309997
39955320111041730160.633037998-2.117082293149.509997
40055320111041730170.633037945-2.117082351149.239997
.......

I can read and write all the data back out to files. But I am not sure about a few things.

First would it be best to use BufferedReader and OutputStream such as:

public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
BufferedReader bReader = new BufferedReader(new FileReader ("testdata.txt"));
BufferedOutputStream bytesOut = new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream ("outfile.txt"));

Second, I was then going to initialize an array but I might have 30 or more columns of data, of which I might perform and output only 10 columns to my output.txt file so is this a good way?

Third, I only want to perform operations (such as average the data, convert units or multiply two columns together) on 10 of the 30 plus columns and print out results to output.txt file. For example, In testdata.txt file above, I want to skip first seven columns. I then want to take column 8 and multiply by 100 then divide by 3 and output result to output file. I want to do same for column 9. Column 10 I want to multiply by different number (by 3.5).

New Line In Text File

Jun 9, 2014

I'm trying to print the information entered into my TimeClockApp to a text file named timeclock.txt. Everything is writing to the text file, except instead of adding each part of the run through the app to one line, it is saving each part on a separate line like this:

To ensure that each run through the time clock is recorded on a different line in the text file, I want it to add each item like this instead:

i 3 2014/06/08 15:32:29

I have tried to execute the

out.println(timeClock.get(i)); line as out.println(timeClock.get(i) + " "); and out.println(timeClock.get(i) + "

but have had no luck in fixing this problem. My current code that writes the information to the text file is as follows:

// write items to timeclock.txt file
try {
// open an output stream for overwriting a text file
PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(
new BufferedWriter(

Reading Text File With Specific Input Format - Output Formatted Report

Apr 10, 2014

Here's a link to it : [URL] ....

The basic gist is it's "A program that reads in a text file that uses a specific input format and uses it to produce a formatted report for output."

Specifically :"For this lab you will write a Java program that produces a simple formatted report. The program will prompt the user to enter a file name. This file must contain information in a specific format (detailed below). Each "block" of the file contains information for one player in a competition -- the name of the player followed by a number of different scores that that player achieved. The program should find each player's average score, median score and best and worst scores and display them in a line on the final summary report. The program should also determine which player has the highest average score and which player has the lowest average score."

I get the following errors when I try and compile it:

Enter an input file name: Project11.txt
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException... -1
at java.util.ArrayList.elementData(Unknown Source)
at java.util.ArrayList.get(Unknown Source)
at Project11.getMedian(Project11.java:68)
at Project11.main(Project11.java:27)

I get that the error(s) reside in lines 68 and 27, among problem other areas, but I'm not exactly sure how I can fix them.

Here's my code:

import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
public class Project11 {
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException{
Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.print("Enter an input file name: ");
String input = in.nextLine();

Writing Text To File - How To Append New Line

Jan 11, 2015

How to output text to a file, so I had to do my own research on google, but the results I found were confusing. I finally got my code to write to a file, but I cannot figure out how to append a new line. I know what part of the code is incorrect, but I don't know how to fix it. here is what I have right now:

import java.io.IOException;
import java.nio.file.Files;
import java.nio.file.Paths;
import java.util.Scanner;
 public class highscore {
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {

[Code] ....

I can see the last two lines are telling the program to overwrite the first input with the second. Of course if I pick a different file name for the second output, I get another file with the second input, but I need to learn how to append as well.

Scanner Only Reading First Line Of Text File?

Feb 6, 2015

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?

I/O - Read 11 Values From A Text File / Each Value On Separate Line

Mar 26, 2014

So I'm trying to read 11 values from a text file, each value on a separate line. The first value I use as loop control to run through calculations on the other ten and finally output both the numbers and the calculations to the console and an output file. I'm not getting a compiler error or a runtime error but my loop seems to stop after reading the first line. It also doesnt seem to be writing to my output file but does create it when I run the program. This is what my text file looks like

10
150.4
88.4
-3.14
499.4
799.4
1299.8
0
1900.2
901.7
4444.4

This is what my program looks like

import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
 public class assignment7scratch
{
  Toolkit_General toolKit = new Toolkit_General();
  public static void main (String[]args)throws IOException

[Code] .....

so I dont get an error but this is what my output looks like

----jGRASP exec: java assignment7scratch

This program reads a list of values representing number of miles driven by individuals. It will output the dollar amount their rental cars cost.

Number of miles traveled on the left as well as amount reimbursed on the right

-----------------------------------------------
Miles Driven Amount reimbursed
150.427.072

----jGRASP: operation complete.

it also doesn't write anything to my output file, though it does create one.

Java Code:

import java.io.BufferedWriter;
import java.io.FileWriter;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.PrintWriter;

[code]....

first is saved next to the value existing. why? maybe because the program does not check if there is a string in the file?but I do not think. because otherwise it would happen with any name that is not entered in an odd position.
