Splitting File into Array
Hi,
Basically I have a text file that I want to read line by line (I have this bit working) and write it to an array.
However I want the data from the text file to be split after every character.
For example:
Text file line 1: ABCDEFG
Array: { A, B, C, D, E, F, G}
Could anyone give me any help on this?
Thanks

Re: Splitting File into Array
If you split a string on an empty string, it will split that string on characters:
String sb = "ABCDE"; String[] s = sb.split(""); for (String st : s ){ System.out.println(st); }
Re: Splitting File into Array
You can get a character at a certain position in the string using the charAt() method:
String str = "Hello"; str.charAt(1); // 'e'
Re: Splitting File into Array
Thanks for the replies. this has helped alot.
Does anyone know how to omit the first two lines from the input text file every time? As i do not want these in the array.

Re: Splitting File into Array
Use a "dummy read", ie. read them in but don't do anything with that data.
// skip two lines myReader.nextLine(); myuReader.nextLine();
