Thread: i am very stuck on this

can someone please help me solve this for me:

Read in a text file called repeat.txt, consisting integer numbers. Convert the text
numbers into INTEGER and store them into an ARRAY. Max number of numbers in
the file is 25, one number per line.
Input File Example:
1
2
2
3
4
4
5
5
5

A repeat in an array is a series of 2 or more adjacent elements of the same value.
Return the number of repeats in the given array.
Sample output. Several possibilities are presented

Counting Repeats
===========
[1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 4] = 2

Counting Repeats
===========
[1, 1, 2, 1, 1] = 2

Counting Repeats
===========
[1, 1, 1, 1, 1] = 1

I have set up the import code but I don't know how to put the numbers in the import file into the array

Sorry for reposting this problem again, but I found one of the things that I don't know how to do:
How do I send data to an array after I set up my buffered reader?

What have you tried?

Be sure to wrap any posted code with code tags:

[code]
**YOUR CODE GOES HERE**
[/code]

to get highlighting and preserve formatting.

how to put the numbers in the import file into the array

Use a Scanner class's method to read the file
and use an assignment statement to put the data into the array.
Wrap the code in a loop to read the data and assign it to slots in the array.

How do I send data to an array

Use an assignment statement:

   theArray[theIndex] = theValue;   // assign a value to a slot in array
