Input Output And Exceptions
Input/Output Exceptions
Demo0:Pick a Number
import java.util.Scanner; public class Demo0 { public static void main(String[] args) { Scanner kb=new Scanner(System.in); int number = pickANumber(kb); while(number != 0){ number = pickANumber(kb); } } public static int pickANumber(Scanner kb) { System.out.print("Pick a number (0 to quit): "); String aNumber=kb.nextLine(); int number=Integer.parseInt(aNumber); return number; } }
- Type in integers, and all is well... what if you type a double or a String?
- Now catch the Exception in the
main
methodtry { int number=pickANumber(kb); while (number!=0) { number=pickANumber(kb); } } catch (Exception e){ System.out.println("Exception Thrown!!!"); System.out.println(e.getMessage()); }
- Change the
pickANumber
method so it throws an SillyNumber exceptionpublic static int pickANumber(Scanner kb) throws SillyNumberException { System.out.print("Pick a number (0 to quit): "); String aNumber=kb.nextLine(); int number=Integer.parseInt(aNumber); if (number%2==1) throw new SillyNumberException("That's odd..."); return number; }
Demo1: LineNumberer
import java.io.FileReader; import java.io.FileNotFoundException; import java.io.PrintWriter; import java.util.Scanner; import javax.swing.JFileChooser; public class LineNumberer { public static void main(String[] args) throws FileNotFoundException { Scanner console = new Scanner(System.in); System.out.print("Output file: "); String outputFileName = console.next(); JFileChooser chooser = new JFileChooser(); if (chooser.showOpenDialog(null) == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) { FileReader reader = new FileReader(chooser.getSelectedFile() ); System.out.println("Adding line numbers to "+chooser.getSelectedFile().getName() ); Scanner in = new Scanner(reader); PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(outputFileName); int lineNumber = 1; while (in.hasNextLine()) { String line = in.nextLine(); out.println("/* " + lineNumber + " */ " + line); lineNumber++; } out.close(); in.close(); } } }
Any text file like the one below can be used.
Mary.txt
Mary had a little lamb Whose fleece is white as snow Everywhere Mary went Her lamb was sure to go
Demo 2 : Data Analyzer
DataAnalyzer.java
import java.io.FileNotFoundException; import java.io.IOException; import java.util.Scanner; /** This program reads a file containing numbers and analyzes its contents.

BadDataException.java
/** This class reports bad input data. */ public class BadDataException extends Exception { public BadDataException() {} public BadDataException(String message) { super(message); } }
Data files
The following are different input files. Using your operating systems, place a copy of these data files in the same folder where your IDE stores your project.

Review Exercises
Programming Exercises
Do one of these for 8 points, or both for 10 points.
P3.6.1 Write a program that asks a user for a file name and prints the number of characters, words, and lines in that file. If you use the Mary.txt file above you should get the following output:
Characters: 94 Words: 20 Lines : 4
Use the following class as your main class:
import java.io.FileReader; import java.io.IOException; import java.util.Scanner; import javax.swing.JFileChooser; /** This class prints a report on the contents of a file. */ public class FileAnalyzer { public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException { JFileChooser chooser = new JFileChooser(); if (chooser.showOpenDialog(null) == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) { FileReader reader = new FileReader(chooser.getSelectedFile()); Scanner fileIn = new Scanner(reader); FileCounter counter = new FileCounter(); counter.read(fileIn); fileIn.close(); System.out.println("Characters: " + counter.getCharacterCount()); System.out.println("Words: " + counter.getWordCount()); System.out.println("Lines : " + counter.getLineCount()); } } }
FileCounter.java
import java.util.Scanner; /** A class to count the number of characters, words, and lines in files. */ public class FileCounter { /** * instance variables */ //your code here... /** Constructs a FileCounter object. */ public FileCounter() { //Your code here . . . } /** Processes an input source and adds its character, word, and line counts to this counter. @param in the scanner to process */ public void read(Scanner in) { while (in.hasNextLine()) { String line=in.nextLine(); //Your code here. . . } } /** Gets the number of words in this counter. @return the number of words */ public int getWordCount() { //Your code here. . . } /** Gets the number of lines in this counter. @return the number of lines */ public int getLineCount() { //Your code here . . . } /** Gets the number of characters in this counter. @return the number of characters */ public int getCharacterCount() { //Your code here . . . } }
P3.6.2 Write a program that asks the user to input a set of floating-point values. When the user enters a value that is not a number, give the user as many chances as necessary to enter a correct value. Quit the input stage of the program when the user enters a blank input. Add all correctly specified values and print the sum when the user is done entering data. Use exception handling to detect improper inputs.
Here is a sample program run:
Value: 1 Value: 2 Value: three Input error. Try again. Value: 3 Value : four Input error. Try again. Value: quartre Input error. Try again. Value: vier Input error. Try again. Value: 4 Value: five Input error. Try again. Value: cinq Input error. Try again. Value: 5 Value: Sum: 15.0
Your main class should be called DataReader.
import java.util.Scanner; public class DataReader { public static void main(String[] args) { Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in); boolean done = false; double sum = 0; while (!done) { try { // your code here... } catch (NumberFormatException e) { System.out.println("Input error. Try again."); } } System.out.println("Sum: " + sum); } }
