My problems is that I have to arrange, when searching for a customer, arrange the while loop to only examine every fourth line read.
This is the code I already have on this problem:
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("Customers.txt"));
String line;
while ((line = br.readLine()) != null)
{
...
}
br.close();
Does anybody know what needs to be at the place of "..."?
Thanks!
Just call br.readLine() 3 times at the end of the loop, discarding the output:
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("Customers.txt"));
String line;
while ((line = br.readLine()) != null)
{
...
for(int i=0;i<3;i++){ br.readLine(); }
}
br.close();
Something along the lines of
int i = 0;
while ((line = br.readLine()) != null)
{
i++;
if (i % 4 == 0)
{
// if i is divisible by 4, then
// your actual code will get executed
...
}
}
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("Customers.txt"));
String line;
int count 0;
while ((line = br.readLine()) != null)
{
if (count!=3)
count++;
else {
// Do something?
count=0;
}
}
br.close();
