Reading and printing from a file

I have a method that reads temperatures from a data file and prints them to the monitor. I use a while loop to read each line of the file, but for some reason it doesnt skip the loop when readLine returns null. My question is how do i get the method to stop reading before it returns null...
   public static void printFile(String textFile) throws IOException
        String inputString="";
        BufferedReader inputDataFile=
        new BufferedReader(new FileReader(CENTIGRADE_DATA_FILE));
        while(inputString!=null)
            inputString= inputDataFile.readLine();
            System.out.println(inputString);
        inputDataFile.close();
   

ok cool thanks for pointing that out guys i appreciate it...now i need to take those temps and convert them from Strings to doubles so they can be converted i tried this but im getting a NumberFormatException error...
public static void buildReport() throws IOException
        double centigradeTemp=0.00;
        String inputTemp="";
        //Open centigrade temps to be read and converted
        BufferedReader inputDataFile=
        new BufferedReader(new FileReader(CENTIGRADE_DATA_FILE));
        //Open file writer to write report
        PrintWriter outFile=new PrintWriter(new FileWriter("TempReport.txt"));
        //While loop to read a temp, convert it, and write it in the report
        while((inputTemp= inputDataFile.readLine())!=null)
            centigradeTemp=Integer.parseInt(inputTemp);           
            outFile.println(fahrenheit(centigradeTemp));
        outFile.close();
    public static double fahrenheit(double centigrade)
        double fahrenTemp=0.00;
        fahrenTemp=(9/5)*centigrade + 32;
        return fahrenTemp;

  • Reading and writing from a file

    I am trying to read and write to a file so that I may store an array of string and a double in my application, but I have come upon a couple of problems; first when I put my file path into the path constant it will say that the file is not there ever though it is (so I have to force the issue and when the application asks for a file I have to browse and add the files), secondly when I run the program and it reads from the file it does not display the strings or doubles immediately instead I have to hit the submit button and than they finally come up, thirdly when I reset my values in the .txt files and put in my string and double and hit submit the array jumps one spot and starts at the index of 1 (array[1])  if anyone can help I would appreciate it a lot.
    here is my code:

    I don't see that behavior at all about forcing the issue.  Why are you using Not a Path constants?  Why not turn those constants into controls you put on your front panel?
    secondly when I run the program and it reads from the file it does not display the strings or doubles immediately instead I have to hit the submit button and than they finally come up,
    Put your array indicators before your event structure rather than after.  Think dataflow.  The code pauses at the event structure waiting for an even to fire.  Only when it does (such as hitting the submit button) does the data get written to the array indicators. 
    thirdly when I reset my values in the .txt files and put in my string and double and hit submit the array jumps one spot and starts at the index of 1 (array[1])  if anyone can help I would appreciate it a lot.
    I don't see this behavior either.  How come your double.txt file has names in it, and your string.txt file has doubles in it?

  • READING AND WRITING FROM A FILE(WRITTEN IN ANOTHER LANGUAGE)

    # Comment
    INTEGER Declares integer type variable
    STRING Declares string type variable
    LET Assigns a variable
    CALCULATE Performs an arithmetic calculation
    PRINT Writes data to the console
    PRINTLN As print, but followed by a new line
    END Terminates the program
    Each line of the program must begin with one of these words, and the language should not be case sensitive.
    Tim Brailsford, 2007
    G64ICP
    COMMENT
    Any line beginning with the # character is completely ignored.
    Example:
    # ignore this line!
    INTEGER
    The INTEGER reserved word declares an Integer variable, and assigns a default value of 0 to it.
    Example:
    INTEGER myInt
    This example is equivalent to the Java statment "int myInt=0;"
    STRING
    The STRING reserved word declares a String variable, and assigns an empty string to it.
    Example:
    STRING myString
    This is equivalent to the Java statement "String myString;"
    LET
    This assigns values to variables (either integers, or strings enclosed
    in double quotes).
    Examples:
    LET myInt=42
    LET myString="Hello World!"
    CALCULATE
    This performs numeric calculations upon values or variables, and assigns the result to a variable (which must have
    been declared earlier). Four operators are supported: + *
    and / (for addition, subtraction multiplication and
    integer division respectively).
    Examples:
    CALCULATE myInt=2*2
    CALCULATE myInt=myInt+24
    CALCULATE myInt=intA/intB
    PRINT and PRINTLN
    These words both print to the console the
    only difference being that PRINTLN appends a new line (as does
    System.out.println in Java). These can print either text provided as an argument, or variables (string or integer).
    Examples:
    PRINTLN "Hello World!"
    PRINT myString
    PRINTLN myInt
    END
    This terminates the program, and prints a message to that effect.
    TPL Example
    To the left is an example TPL input file , to

    INTEGER myInt

    STRING myString
    LET mystring="Factorial Program"

  • I have a new Macbook pro and need to run some Windows software, it appears "Parallel" should work well from what I've have read. Will I have any issues or problems accessing and printing from various printers on my Windows 7 network within Parallel?

    I have a new Macbook pro and need to run some Windows software, it appears "Parallel" should work well from what I've have read. Will I have any issues or problems accessing and printing from various printers on my Windows 7 network within Parallel? Is Parallel in fact the best way to go?

    First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
    There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
    If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
    Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
    Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
    If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
    Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long.

  • Kinect Explorer WPF C# read depth data from the file and conversion to skeleton

    Hello,
    I am using Kinect sensor to do some research on biometrics. Since it is impossible to find people to collect some samples, I would like to use samples from the TUM - GAID database, where there exist Color View and Depth View (in .raw format) samples. Therefore,
    I need to read these samples from the file and do a batch processing, instead of performing real-time collecting of samples (where I can take automatically the Skeleton view using the Kinect SDK). So, I need help on
    1. Reading the data from the file (instead of activating the Kinect sensor) and give this data as an input for conversion to a skeleton
    2. Read the .raw files 
    Thank you very much
    Kind regards

    Hiya,
     I doubt this forum, C Sharp, will provide much help. You are asking about the Kinects system not C#
    language. However, you can try this link; http://kinectforwindows.codeplex.com/
    Hope this help. Thanks :)
