Help with parallel arrays of different data types

Question

Hello all, I am having an issue with parallel arrays. My program requires me to read information from a text file into 4 parallel arrays (2 String and 2 double). My text file needs to look something like this:
John Johnson
0000004738294961
502.67
1000.000
Jane Smith
0000005296847913
284.51
1000.000
...and so on
Where the first thing is the name (obviously), an account number, the balance in the account, and the credit limit. I just cant figure out how to read everything into the arrays. We havent learned anything too heavy, and this seems a little too advanced for my class, but I guess we will manage. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks guys.

Man this is a dumb homework assignment. The requirements scream out for a class along the lines of
public class Account{
  private String name, number;
  private double balance,creditlimit;
   // more code here
}and then to use a List of Account objects.
Anyway what's your actual problem. There's nothing very hard about it. A loop. So....
You should consider posting (formatted) code showing what you have done and where exactly you are stuck.
