Read a character 1 at a time from a text file

Hi all,
I have tried the following to read 1 character at a time from a text file but it did not work;
int buf_sz = 1;
         try
            BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader( new FileReader( "C:\\bitshift.txt", buf_sz ));
            String rd_line = null;
            while( (rd_line = br.readLine()) != null)
                System.out.println(rd_line + "\n");
         }I could only get it to read the whole line by removing the buf_sz when creating an instance of the BufferedReader.
How can I achieve this?
Thanks

The Javadoc for Reader.read()
read
public int read()
         throws IOException
    Read a single character. This method will block until a character is available, an I/O error occurs, or the end of the stream is reached.
    Subclasses that intend to support efficient single-character input should override this method.
    Returns:
        The character read, as an integer in the range 0 to 65535 (0x00-0xffff), or -1 if the end of the stream has been reached
    Throws:
        IOException - If an I/O error occurs

  • Read one word at a time from a text file

    I want to read one word at a time from a text file as it is done by "scanf &s" function in text based programme. It is not possible by " read from text"  function. Suggest me  function or method to solve this.

    The simplest way is to use the spreadsheet string to array function with the space character as the delimiter.
    Note that this won't work unless there is a space character between the words - it won't work with line feeds / carriage returns between the words but you could always split the string into lines first. You may also want to trim whitespace to remove any other non-visible characters (e.g. tab, line feeds) from around the word.
    If you need something more sophisticated that splits based on whitespace (e.g. tab, new line) then you'll probably need to do something with searching the string for these characters (e.g. using a regular expression) and then splitting them yourself into an array.
    Of course...if you actually want to just read one word at a time from the file rather than just split the file into words (I assumed you meant this), you will need to read the file byte by byte using the low level file IO functions, build a buffer of the bytes and check the character you've read to see if it a space.

  • Add one character at  a time from External Text file

    Hi,
    I'm using Flash 8, and I have created a standard Dynamic
    field that pulls the text from an external text file using the
    LoadVars function and it works fine.
    To get the correct effect for the design, I would like to be
    able to create the illusion that the characters are being typed out
    when the page loads as if someone has started typing and also hear
    the "Typewriter Clack" each time a character appears.
    The only place I have found an example is on the Syphon
    Filter Game website which seems to have created the illusion
    perfectly:
    http://www.syphonfilterdarkmirror-thegame.com/en_IE/
    (Check out the bottom right section)
    I could create a Movieclip and add a character each frame
    but, I would like to be able to edit the text when required via a
    text file or even ASP or PHP if neccessary.
    Any help would be grateful.
    Cheers

  • How to read from a text file one character at a time?

    Some additional comments:
    You really don't want to read any file one character at a time, because it is highly inefficient. More typically, you read the entire file into memory with one operation (or at least a large chunk, if the file is gigantic) and then do the rest of the operations in memory.  One easy way to analyze it one byte at a time would be to use "string to byte array" and then autoindex into a FOR loop, for example.
    Of course you could also read the file directly as a U8 array instead of a string.

  • How can I read a specific character from a text file?

    Hi All!
    I would like to read a specific character from a text file, e.g. the 2012th character in a text file with 7034 characters.
    How can I do this?
    Thanks
    Johannes

    just use the skip(long) method of the input stream that reads the text file and skip over the desired number of bytes

  • Read data from a text file, one line at a time.

    I need to read data from a text file, and display each line in a String Indicator on Front Panel. It displays each line, but I get Error 4, End Of Line, unless I enter an extra line of data in the file that I don't need. I tried Read From Text File.vi, made by Nat Instr, and it gave the same error.

    The Read from Text File.vi reads data from a text file line by line until the user stops the VI manually with the Stop button on the front panel, or until an error (such as "Error 4, End of file") occurs. If an error occurs, the Simple Error Handler.vi pops up a dialog that tells you which error occurred.
    The Read from Text File.vi uses a while loop, but if you knew how many lines you wanted to read, you could replace the while loop with a for loop set to read that many lines from the file.
    If you need something more dynamic because the number of lines in your files vary, then you could change the code of the Read from Text File.vi to the expect "Error 4, End of file" and handle it appropriately. This would require unbundling the error cluster that comes fro
    m the Read File function with the Unbundle By Name function, so that you can expose the individual error "status" and error "code" values stored in the cluster. If the value of the error "code" is 4, then you can change the error "status" from true to false, and you can rebundle the cluster with the Bundle by Name function. Setting the error "status" to false instructs the Simple Error Handler to ignore the error. Otherwise, pass the original error cluster to the Simple Error Handler.vi, so that you can see what the error is.
    Of course, if you're not interested in what the errors are, you could just remove the Simple Error Handler.vi, but then you wouldn't see any error messages.

  • Reading a Random Line from a Text File

    Hello,
    I have a program that reads from a text file words. I currently have a text file around 800KB of words. The problem is, if I try to load this into an arraylist so I can use it in my application, it takes wayy long to load. I was wondering if there was a way to just read a random line from the text file.

    I thought that maybe serializing the ArrayList might be faster than creating the ArrayList by iterating over each line in the text file. But alas, I was wrong. Here's my code anyway:
    class WordList extends ArrayList<String>{
      long updated;
    WordList readWordList(File file) throws Exception{
      WordList list = new WordList();
      BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(file));
      String line = null;
      while ((line = in.readLine()) != null){
        list.add(line);
      in.close();
      list.updated = file.lastModified();
      return list;
    WordList wordList;
    File datFile = new File("words.dat");
    File txtFile = new File("input.txt");
    if (datFile.exists()){
      ObjectInputStream input = new ObjectInputStream(new FileInputStream(datFile));
      wordList = (WordList)input.readObject();
      if (wordList.updated < txtFile.lastModified()){
        //if the text file has been updated, re-read it
        wordList = readWordList(txtFile);
        ObjectOutputStream output = new ObjectOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(datFile));
        output.writeObject(wordList);
        output.close();
    } else {
      //serialized list does not exist--create it
      wordList = readWordList(txtFile);
      ObjectOutputStream output = new ObjectOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(datFile));
      output.writeObject(wordList);
      output.close();
    }The text file contained one random sequence of letters per line. For example:
    hwnuu
    nhpgaucah
    zfbylzt
    hwnc
    gicgwkhStats:
    Text file size: 892K
    Serialized file size: 1.1MB
    Time to read from text file: 795ms

    Since the word "TEXT" is formed of 4 letters, you would read the text file 4 bytes by four bytes. Wrong on two counts. First, the file may not be encoded 1 byte per character. It could be utf-16 in which case it would be two byte per character. Second, even if it were 1 byte per character, the string "Text" may not start on a 4 byte boundary.
    Consider a FileInputStream object "fis" that points to your text file. use fis.read(byte[] array, int offset, int len) to read every four bytes. Convert the "TEXT" String into a byte array "TEXT".getBytes(), and yous the Arrays class to compare the equality of the read bytes with your "TEXT".getBytes()Wrong since it relies on my second point and will fail when fis.read(byte[] array, int offset, int len) does not read 4 bytes (as is no guaranteed to). Check the Javadoc. Also, the file may not be encoded with the default character encoding.
    The problem is easily solved by reading a line at a time using a BufferedReader wrapping an InputStreamReader wrapping a FileInputStream and specifying the correct character encoding.

    okay to save time here i've managed to read the text from the text file and display in the console
    my question is - is there a way to read the text a character at a time, at present i read it as a string, the reason i need a character is that i have to check each character to check for brackets ({[ and [})
    public void loadFile() {

    any help will be appreciated

    if(array.equals("(")) System.out.println("(");//doesn't workinstead try

    You could also try the String methods myString.indexOf() (but you'd have to do one for each char you're looking for)
    A better alternative might be using a StringTokenizer

  • Reading characters from a text file into a multidimensional array?

    I have an array, maze[][] that is to be filled with characters from a text file. I've got most of the program worked out (i think) but can't test it because I am reading my file incorrectly. However, I'm running into major headaches with this part of the program.
    The text file looks like this: (It is meant to be a maze, 19 is the size of the maze(assumed to be square). is free space, # is block, s is start, x is finish)
    This didn't paste evenly, but thats not a big deal. Just giving an idea.
    19
    5..................
    And my constructor looks like follows, I've tried zillions of things with the input.hasNext() and hasNextLine() to no avail.
    Code:
    //Scanner to read file
    Scanner input = null;
    try{
    input = new Scanner(fileName);
    }catch(RuntimeException e) {
    System.err.println("Couldn't find the file");
    System.exit(0);
    //Set the size of the maze
    while(input.hasNextInt())
    size = input.nextInt();
    //Set Limits on coordinates
    Coordinates.setLimits(size);
    //Set the maze[][] array equal to this size
    maze = new char[size][size];
    //Fill the Array with maze values
    for(int i = 0; i < maze.length; i++)
    for(int x = 0; x < maze.length; x++)
    if(input.hasNextLine())
    String insert = input.nextLine();
    maze[i][x] = insert.charAt(x);
    Any advice would be loved =D

    Code-tags sometimes cause wonders, I replaced # with *, as the code tags interprets # as comment, which looks odd:
    ******...*.........To your code: Did you test it step by step, to find out about what is read? You could either use a debugger (e.g., if you have an IDE) or system outs to get a clue. First thing to check would be, if the maze size is read correctly. Further, the following loops look odd:for(int i = 0; i < maze.length; i++) {
        for(int x = 0; x < maze.length; x++) {
            if (input.hasNextLine()) {
                String insert = input.nextLine();
                maze[x] = insert.charAt(x);
    }Shouldn't the nextLine test and assignment be in the outer loop? And assignment be to each maze's inner array? Like so:for(int i = 0; i < maze.length; i++) {
        if (input.hasNextLine()) {
            String insert = input.nextLine();
            for(int x = 0; x < insert.size(); x++) {
                maze[i][x] = insert.charAt(x);
    }Otherwise, only one character per line is read and storing a character actually should fail.

  • Reading parameters lists from a text file

    Hi All,
    Using CR XI R2 with VB6  and external .rpt files - - - - -
    In a VB6 app I use VB to loop through my tables to create dynamic parameter lists (CR XI is limited to the number of parameters it can create from the table). This works well but each time the user refreshes the report the same code is run to re-create the parameter list which is redundant and slows down the report(s).
    Is it possible to manually create a series of text files - say each morning - and then read the parameter lists from the text file(s) at runtime instead of doing it on the fly each time?
    Thanks in advance!

    Is it possible to manually create a series of text files - say each morning - and then read the parameter lists from the text file(s) at runtime instead of doing it on the fly each time?
    Typically, runtime means on the fly - I think...
    So, I'm not sure if you are trying to read a saved data report and filter that saved data so that you do not have to hit the database(?).
    Creating a text file is beyond the support of this forum, though that should be a trivial exercise. Reading a text file and passing the results to a parameter is the same thing you are doing already, so I'm not sure where the hang up would be here(?)
    Or - rather than creating a text file, why not create a temp table and query it as you do when you loop through the tables to create dynamic parameter lists(?).
    I'm pretty lost here...

  • Reading in integers from a text file

    Hi, I am going to go for the 'reading in from a text file' action as I haven't done this before. So I have been looking at all the examples and am trying the one out below :) My question is that though the structure seems pretty straightforward, what is the action of the 'token' and why doesn't java recognise it as it is used in many different examples that I have seen?
    public static int[] getIntegersFromFile(String fileName) throws IOException {
                   StringWriter writer = new StringWriter();
                   BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(fileName));
                   List<Integer> list = new ArrayList<Integer>();
                   for (String line = reader.readLine(); line != null; line = reader.readLine()) {
                   writer.write(line + " ");
                   StringTokenizer tokens = new StringTokenizer(writertoString());
                   while (tokens.hasMoreTokens()) {
                        String str = tokens.nextToken();
                        try {
                             list.add(new Integer(str));
                             } catch (NumberFormatException e) {
                                  System.out.println("Error '" + str + "' is not an integer.");
                   int[] array = new int[list.size()];
                        for( int i = 0; i < array.length; i++){
                        array[i] = list.get(i);
                   return array;
         }

    Hey, first of all, a piece of advice, try formatting your codes you make easier
    to understand for the people who help you. You can check out the
    formatting tips
    Now, A think that could help you a lot, is the next link, seek out the
    documentation for the StringTokenizer class
    http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/
    Here your code formated and later my interpretation of your question.
    public static int[] getIntegersFromFile(String fileName) throws IOException {
       StringWriter writer = new StringWriter();
       BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(fileName));
       List<Integer> list = new ArrayList<Integer>();
       for (String line = reader.readLine(); line != null; line = reader.readLine()) {
          writer.write(line + " ");
       StringTokenizer tokens = new StringTokenizer(writertoString());
       while (tokens.hasMoreTokens()) {
          String str = tokens.nextToken();
          try {
             list.add(new Integer(str));
          } catch (NumberFormatException e) {
             System.out.println("Error '" + str + "' is not an integer.");
       int[] array = new int[list.size()];
       for( int i = 0; i < array.length; i++){
          array = list.get(i);
       return array;
    }StringTokenizer separates the string contained by the space character, and
    each piece of the separated string is stored into the token.
    Further on, could you extend your question about "why doesn't Java
    recognize what?" please, because I don't know if you have a problem
    iterating or is just that it doesn't compile or what.
    Expecting your answer, to complete mine, cya around.
    -Best Regards.

    Hi,
    How to read a tab seperated data from a text file using utl_file...
    I know if we use UTL_FILE.get_line we can read the whole line...but i need to read the tab separated value separately.....
    Thanks in advance...

    I know if we use UTL_FILE.get_line we can read the whole line...but i need to read the tab separated value separately.....If it's a text file then UTL_FILE will only allow you to read it a line at a time. It is then up to you to split that string up (search for split string on this forum for methods) into it's individual components.
    If the text file contains a standard structure on each line, i.e. it is a fixed delimited structure, then you could use external tables to read the data instead.

  • How to read characters from a text file in java program ?

    Sir,
    I have to read the characters m to z listed in a text file .
    I must compare the character read from the file.
    And if any of the characters between m to z is matched i have to replace it with a hexadecimal value.
    Any help or suggesstions in this regard would be very useful.
    Thanking you,
    khurram

    Hai,
    The requirement is like this
    There is an input file, the contents of the file are as follows, you can assume any name for the file.
    #Character mappings for Japanese Shift-JIS character set
    #ASCII character Mapped Shift-JIS character
    m 227,128,133 #Half width katakana letter small m
    n 227,128,134 #Half width katakana letter small n
    o 227,129,129
    p 227,129,130
    q 227,129,131
    r 227,129,132
    s 227,129,133
    t 227,129,134
    u 227,129,135
    v 227,129,136
    w 227,129,137
    x 227,129,138
    y 227,129,139
    z 227,129,142
    The contents of the above file are to be read as input.
    On encountering any character between m to z, i have to do a replacement with a hexadecimal code point value for the multibyte representation in the second column in the input file.
    I have the code to get the unicode codepoint value from the multibyte representation, but not from a file.
    So if you could please tell me how to get the characters in the second column, it would be very useful for me.
    The character # is used to represent the beginning of a comment in the input file.
    And comment lines are to be ignored while reading the file.
    Say i have a string str="message";
    then i should replace the m with the unicode code point value.
    Thanking you,
    khurram
