String fName = "c:\\game.txt";
ArrayList<ArrayList<String>> matrix = new ArrayList<ArrayList<String>>();
{
try
{
File file = new File(fName);
Scanner in = new Scanner(file);

// for ( int i = 0; i < matrix.size(); i++ )
// matrix.add(new ArrayList<String>());

while (in.hasNextLine())
{
String line = in.nextLine();

for (int i =0; i<matrix.size(); i++)
matrix.get(i).add(line);

Re: 2d arrayist

Your question has already been answered on your other thread, and I've explained twice the mistake you are making on the code tags. Again, it's this:

[code]
// paste code here
[/code]

not this:

// paste code here

Re: 2d arrayist

i tried the scanner thing and nothing.

Java Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
  String fName = "c:\\game.txt";
    ArrayList<ArrayList<String>> matrix = new ArrayList<ArrayList<String>>();
 
 
 
 
    private void readFile()
    {
 
        try         
        {
            File file = new File(fName);
            Scanner in = new Scanner(new FileInputStream(fName)); 
 
 
            while (in.hasNextLine())
            {
                String line = in.nextLine();
 
                for (int i =0; i<matrix.size(); i++)
                    matrix.get(i).add(line);
            }
            in.close();
        }
        catch(Exception e)
        {
            String s = e.toString();
        }
 
    }
  String fName = "c:\\game.txt";
    ArrayList<ArrayList<String>> matrix = new ArrayList<ArrayList<String>>();
        
    
   

    private void readFile()
    {
        
        try         
        {
            File file = new File(fName);
            Scanner in = new Scanner(new FileInputStream(fName)); 
            

            while (in.hasNextLine())
            {
                String line = in.nextLine();
                
                for (int i =0; i<matrix.size(); i++)
                    matrix.get(i).add(line);
            }
            in.close();
        }
        catch(Exception e)

Re: 2d arrayist

line is getting a value, but for some reason matrix is not being populated. "i" always stays at 0. and there is info on the file it is reading from

Re: 2d arrayist

Mark your other thread solved please.

(Toggle Plain Text)

ArrayList<ArrayList<String>> matrix = new ArrayList<ArrayList<String>>();

Java Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
matrix.get(i).add(line);
matrix.get(i).add(line);

I don't see anywhere where you ever create an ArrayList of String and add it to matrix, so there's nothing to "get". You should create an ArrayList of String, add the Strings to it, then add that ArrayList to matrix. You are currently "getting" something that has never been added.

Java Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
ArrayList <String> arraylist = new ArrayList<String> ();
String line;
// read a  line from file, store in line
arraylist.add (line);
matrix.add (arraylist);
ArrayList <String> arraylist = new ArrayList<String> ();
String line;
// read a  line from file, store in line
arraylist.add (line);
matrix.add (arraylist);

Re: 2d arrayist

got it working now, but it is printing out the wrong thing.

Java Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
private void printFile()
    {
 
        for(int i=0; i<matrix.size(); i++)
        {
            System.out.println(matrix.get(i));
        }
    }
private void printFile()
    {
        
        for(int i=0; i<matrix.size(); i++)
        {
            System.out.println(matrix.get(i));
        }
    }

it is supposed to print

X XXXXX X
XXXXXXXXX
XXX X X X
X X X X X
XXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXX

it prints
[XXXXXXXXX, XXX X X X , XXX X X X , X X X X X, X X X X X, X X X X X, XXXXXXXXX, XXXXXXXXX, XXXXXXXXX, XXXXXXXXX, XXXXXXXXX, XXXXXXXXX, XXXXXXXXX, XXXXXXXXX, XXXXXXXXX, XXXXXXXXX, XXXXXXXXX, XXXXXXXXX, XXXXXXXXX, XXXXXXXXX, XXXXXXXXX, XXXXXXXXX, XXXXXXXXX, XXXXXXXXX, XXXXXXXXX, XXXXXXXXX, XXXXXXXXX, XXXXXXXXX]

Re: 2d arrayist

Because that is the toString() representation of an ArrayList, which is what you are printing.

If you want to show it differently then iterate each list and print it as you see fit.
