I am new to Java. I have one text file with below content.
`trace` - structure( list( "a" = structure(c(0.748701,0.243802,0.227221,0.752231,0.261118,0.263976,1.19737,0.22047,0.222584,0.835411)), "b" = structure(c(1.4019,0.486955,-0.127144,0.642778,0.379787,-0.105249,1.0063,0.613083,-0.165703,0.695775)) ) )
Now what I want is, I need to get "a" and "b" as two different array list.
You need to read the file line by line. It is done with a BufferedReader like this :
try {
FileInputStream fstream = new FileInputStream("input.txt");
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(fstream));
String strLine;
int lineNumber = 0;
double [] a = null;
double [] b = null;
// Read File Line By Line
while ((strLine = br.readLine()) != null) {
lineNumber++;
if( lineNumber == 4 ){
a = getDoubleArray(strLine);
}else if( lineNumber == 5 ){
b = getDoubleArray(strLine);
}
}
// Close the input stream
in.close();
//print the contents of a
for(int i = 0; i < a.length; i++){
System.out.println("a["+i+"] = "+a[i]);
}
} catch (Exception e) {// Catch exception if any
System.err.println("Error: " + e.getMessage());
}
Assuming your "a" and"b" are on the fourth and fifth line of the file, you need to call a method when these lines are met that will return an array of double :
private static double[] getDoubleArray(String strLine) {
double[] a;
String[] split = strLine.split("[,)]"); //split the line at the ',' and ')' characters
a = new double[split.length-1];
for(int i = 0; i < a.length; i++){
a[i] = Double.parseDouble(split[i+1]); //get the double value of the String
}
return a;
}
Hope this helps. I would still highly recommend reading the Java I/O and String tutorials.
You can play with split. First find the line in the text that matches "a" (or "b"). Then do something like this:
Array[] first= line.split("("); //first[2] will contain the values
Then:
Array[] arrayList = first[2].split(",");
You will have the numbers in arrayList[]. Be carefull with the final brackets )), because they have a "," right after. But that is code depuration and it is your mission. I gave you the idea.
