I have a directory in which I have 1000 txt.files in it. I want to know for every word how many times it occurs in the 1000 document. So say even the word "cow" occured 100 times in X it will still be counted as one. If it occured in a different document it is incremented by one. So the maximum is 1000 if "cow" appears in every single document. How do I do this the easy way without the use of any other external library. Here's what I have so far
private Hashtable<String, Integer> getAllWordCount()
private Hashtable<String, Integer> getAllWordCount()
{
Hashtable<String, Integer> result = new Hashtable<String, Integer>();
HashSet<String> words = new HashSet<String>();
try {
for (int j = 0; j < fileDirectory.length; j++){
File theDirectory = new File(fileDirectory[j]);
File[] children = theDirectory.listFiles();
for (int i = 0; i < children.length; i++){
Scanner scanner = new Scanner(new FileReader(children[i]));
while (scanner.hasNext()){
String text = scanner.next().replaceAll("[^A-Za-z0-9]", "");
if (words.contains(text) == false){
if (result.get(text) == null)
result.put(text, 1);
else
result.put(text, result.get(text) + 1);
words.add(text);
}
}
}
words.clear();
}
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
System.out.println(result.size());
return result;
}
