Reading from a text file whats up guys, got some more questions. we are starting to learn how to write and read strings to/from txt files. wel thats pretty easy, but how would i retrieve only the first 2 lines of the txt file, for example, if i wanted the first 2 lines, not any other, how would i do it: 12 <--i only need this one and 90 <--this one 12 6 -9
you can read any no.. of lines using the br reader. There are otherways too in which you can read files in java... I suppose u wanted java coz... this is a Java forum... there are other methods like readLine, readInt, readLong etc.. which you can explore as per your requirements. Go thru the api of the java.io package classes. Hope this is helpful...
If not php, use perl. Its all good. The main goal in any language is to let you do the most things in the least set of lines. I say PHP. PHP is the best language for anything and alot simpler. I also see PHP as more wildy documented and theres alot more support. Go the Smart Way, Use PHP.
However, if you wish to read only a certain number of lines, you could also add the following code:
CODE
try {
File inputFile = new File("C:\\test.java"); // put ur filename here BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("infilename")); String str; int counter = 0; while (((str = in.readLine()) != null) && i < 2) {
//set i < the number of lines which you wish to read - i.e., if you wish to read the //first 10 lines only, you would set i < 10
Yes, using programming language for a site is always better if the site has to be dynamic.. otherwise plain html pages are the best. they are so friendly with search engines.
I don't quite understand text files the thread starter is talking about.
Ever think that not all programming languages are online?... I know it's hard to imagine, but it's true
BufferedReaders are good, but if you're using Java 1.5.0 then you can use Scanners which are a bit easier. Here's code to read from a file with a scanner (you also have to import java.util.Scanner and java.io.File):
CODE
public static void main(String[] args) throws FileNotFoundException //because you're using the File class { Scanner infile = new Scanner(new File("filename.txt")); String s1 = infile.next(); //you could use int n = infile.nextInt() if you want an int String s2 = infile.next(); infile.close(); ... }
