Can anyone other than this guy give me some advice for the coding? When you've been thrown in at the deep end with Java it isn't 'simple as pie'.... I think it must be something like datax.add(data.toIntArray()); :-S

Hi guys, I'm currently making a GUI which displays a graph. At the moment it reads coordinates within an array in the code:


public int datax[] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10};
public int datay[] = {1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1};

I need it to take these coordinates from a txt file, which I'm having trouble with.

So far I've made it read in a txt file and output to a text area like this:


public void readFile() {
// Disable read button
readFile.setEnabled(false);

// Dimension data structure
getNumberOfLines();
data = new String[numLines];

// Read file
readTheFile();

// Output to text area
textArea.setText(data[0] + "\n");
for(int index=1; index < data.length;index++)
textArea.append(data[index] + "\n");

// Rnable open button
openFile.setEnabled(true);
}



My code to plot the coordinates using datasets is this:


//Configure dataset
int n = 10;
Dataset dataset = new Dataset (1, 2, n);

for (int k = 0; k < n; ++k)
dataset.set(0, 0, k, datax[k]);

for (int k = 0; k < n; ++k)
dataset.set(0, 1, k, datay[k]);



I need datax and datay to be read in from the txt file though which is formatted simply x val, y val [per line]
3, 4
2, 6
5, 9 etc..

Even if it read the file into an array, then outputted this to the graph, that would work! I know this should be straightforward, but I just can't see how to do it. Some areas of Java I get, others I definately don't :cry: Can anyone possibly suggest a solution?


Thanks

Like I said, now is the time to take responsibility for yourself and stop being spoon fed. Grow up and do it yourself.

If you don't know how, then you should have been paying more attention in class instead of looking for nekid ladeeze.

ThanQ

>What gives you the right to be so harsh? You need to pay more attention in English class.

-Ummm ok? Thanx for that mom?

You gotta be joking right? It's simple stuff, I don't see what da problem is?

Do your own homework kiddo:eek:
