Issue with loop in my code

[JavaStudent07]

I have a feeling it is something simple troubling me, I just cant find out what that problem is. The progam is SO CLOSE! please help me.

public class BubbleSort2
{
public static void main (String args[]) throws Exception
{
String filage="";
String linetext;

BufferedReader inWords=new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
System.out.println("Please input the name of the file from which the data will be acquired.  Be sure to use the entire path.");
filage=inWords.readLine();

while((linetext=inWords.readLine())!=null)
{
Sort(filage);
}
}

that little bit is the problem, I can compile and run, but it only executes the first line of the file and asks for the file again, then does the first line AGAIN and asks for the file AGAIN and so on and so forth repeating untill I terminate the box. If you have any suggestions, me and my friend are having the same problem, thanks for your time,

Steve

This is only ossible if you have print out in the sort method which you decided not to post. Please post the whole class.

I was wondering if you coult do the "String Data=inData.rea dLine(Counter); " to read each line and just bump it up but it said it couldn't resolve the symbol, I pretty much am out of guesses at this point.

What do you want the lines

 
String filage="";
String linetext;

BufferedReader inWords=new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
System.out.println("Please input the name of the file from which the data will be acquired.  Be sure to use the entire path.");
filage=inWords.readLine();

while((linetext=inWords.readLine())!=null)
{
Sort(filage);
}

to do?

[JavaStudent07]

I want them to find the data file inputted at the command prompt and run the program for each line with the while statement

I want them to find the data file inputted at the command prompt and run the program for each line with the while statement

Then

Sort(filage);

should be

 Sort(linetext);

[JavaStudent07]

public static void main (String args[]) throws Exception
{
String filage="";

BufferedReader inWords=new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
System.out.println("Please input the name of the file from which the data will be acquired.  Be sure to use the entire path.");


while((filage=inWords.readLine())!=null)
{
Sort(filage);
}

}

^^^^
that gives the same repeating results

[r035198x]

public static void main (String args[]) throws Exception
{
String filage="";
 
BufferedReader inWords=new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
System.out.println("Please input the name of the file from which the data will be acquired. Be sure to use the entire path.");
 
 
while((filage=inWords.readLine())!=null)
{
Sort(filage);
}
 
}

So filage is actually a line of data from your file.
Now have a look at

 Data=seekBufferedReaderData(filage);

.

And that method takes the fileage and tries to open a file called filage!

sorry, I dont follow. I just want to fill an array with each subscript being a different line of the test values

EX.
1.) 2 3 4 5
2.) 3 6 2 6
3.) 9 2 5 6

i want NumberArray[0]==2 3 4 5 and NumberArray[1]==3 6 2 6, etc etc. I think I can work it out if I can get some direction on that.

 index = 0; 
for each line in the file
String[] two = line.split(")"); // or is it line.split("\\)")?
numberArray[index] = two[1];

[JavaStudent07]

i'm sorry, could you integrate it into my code or some other code for an example of actual coding, I'm not sure based on what you said, thats all new stuff to me...i'm sorry for the inconvenience

 index = 0; 
for each line in the file
String[] two = line.split(")"); // or is it line.split("\\)")?
numberArray[index] = two[1];

Do you understand what the above is trying to do?

[JavaStudent07]

no i dont sorry

Is the data in your file numbered like the example above or is the data just like this

2 3 4 5
3 6 2 6
9 2 5 6
