How to read a text file through BufferedReader

I want to read a text file by BufferedReader, How can I do that? The format of the file as follows:
NAME MAKER YEAR PRICE CONDITION
13 Dead End Drive __ Milton Bradley 1993 $22.00 C09
18 Wheeler Fever __ Donna Lee Ent. 1980 $20.00 C09
how to parse the line from the file to extract the name, maker, year, price and condition.
Thank you first.

Look at: stream tutorials,
BufferedReader, InputStreamReader, FileInputStream, StringTokenizer

    How to read a text file through pl/sql

    pl/sql runs inside the database. so your file also should be on the database server file system for you to be able to read.
    check out UTL_FILE package. This is the database package to read/write files on the database server.

    Guys,
    Good day!
    Please help me how to read a text file using Java and create/convert that text file into XML.

         public void fileRead(){

         }This code is to read a text file. But there is no such thing that will convert your text file to xml file. You have to have a defined XML format. Then you can read your data from text files and insert them inside your xml text. Or you may like to read xml tags from text files and insert your own data. The file format of .txt and .xml is far too different.

  • How to Read the "text file and csv file" through powershell Scripts

    Hi All
    i need to add a multiple users in a particular Group through powershell Script how to read the text and CSV files in powershell
    am completly new to Powershell scripts any one pls respond ASAP.with step by step process pls
    Regards:
    Rajeshreddy.k

    Hi Rajeshreddy.k,
    To add multiple users to one group, I wouldn't use a .csv file since the only value you need from a list is the users to be added.
    To start create a list of users that should be added to the group, import this list in a variable called $users, the group distinguishedName in a variable called $Group and simply call the ActiveDirectory cmdlet Add-GroupMember.
    $Users = Get-Content -Path 'C:\ListOfUsernames.txt'
    $Group = 'CN=MyGroup,OU=MyOrg,DC=domain,DC=lcl'
    Add-ADGroupMember -Identity $Group -Members $Users

  • How to read from text file?

    I would like to read data (frequencies) already written in a text file. I will need read these frequencies one at a time to set the function generator (as part of my data acquisition application), acquire data that is in turn written to a file and then go back and read the next frequency from the file to repeat the process again. I also have another idea of doing the same, which is read all the frequencies from the text file and populate a table and a frequency value is picked from the table each time to go through the process mentioned above.
    Can anyone suggest the following: (1) How to read from a text file, (2) What could be the most efficient way of solving my above problem.
    I am a new LabVIEW user and any help will be appreciated.

    Hi Research,
    Depending on the format of the data file, there are a few options for reading it.  If it is tab delimited, you may want to use the Read from SpreadSheet File VI which will read the file into an Array.  You can then use the Index Array VI to pull out individual entries.  If the files is ASCII but not tab delimited, you could use the regular Open File and Read File VIs.  You can either read the file out piece by piece, or read the entire file into a string and then use the Match Pattern VI to parse out the different elements (there are actually many ways to do this - check out the Strings subpalette).

  • How to read a text file from other machine???

    I have a text file located in local machine. I use th e code below to retrieve data from that particular text file.
    String realPath     = (String)getServletContext().getRealPath("");
    BufferedReader holsFile = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(realPath + "/webpages/holidays.txt"));My question is , how could I retrieve the records from the tsxt file if the file is located in another machine or webserver?
    Thanks for advanced.

    It's ok to be new.
    The answer is yes. (But I'll let you look in the javadoc to see which package it's in).
    Also it may be worth understanding that there is no such thing as a "function" in java, operations are termed "methods". To go further, you should realise that URL is a class not a "function" or method. The parentheses mean you're calling the constructor.

    Here is a web page with easy to follow instructions regarding external files: http://www.adp-gmbh.ch/ora/misc/ext_table.html.
    Now I understand what all the excitement is over external tables.
    "External tables can read flat files (that follow some rules) as though they were ordinary (although read-only) Oracle tables. Therefore, it is convenient to use external tables to load flat files into the DB." -from the above link.
