Reading one line from a text file into an array

Question

i want to read one line from a text file into an array, and then the next line into a different array. both arays are type string...i have this:
public static void readAndProcessData(FileInputStream stream){
     InputStreamReader iStrReader = new InputStreamReader (stream);
     BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader (iStrReader);
     String line = "";          
     try{
     int i = 0;
          while (line != null){                 
               names[i] = reader.readLine();
               score[i] = reader.readLine();
               line = reader.readLine();
               i++;                
          }catch (IOException e){
          System.out.println("Error in file access");
this section calls it:
try{                         
     FileInputStream stream = new FileInputStream("ISU.txt");
          HighScore.readAndProcessData(stream);
          stream.close();
          names = HighScore.getNames();
          scores = HighScore.getScores();
     }catch(IOException e){
          System.out.println("Error in accessing file." + e.toString());
it gives me an array index out of bounds error

Answer 1

oh wait I see it when I looked at the original quote.
They array you made called names or the other one is prob too small for the amount of names that you have in the file. Hence as I increases it eventually goes out of bounds of the array so you should probably resize the array if that happens.
