This is a program that could digest the M letter with MD5 algorithm.What is i want to digest the text from the text file .Something regarding to the FileInputStream but i have no idea how to embed into it .Please ,show it to me

OK ,this time i had tweak some of the code ,it was successfully compiled but display the logical error in cmd "Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointer Exception.......why ?

anyway to correct it ?

From: http://www.google.co.in/search?q=NullPointerException

NullPointerException
Thrown when an application attempts to use null in a case where an object is required. These include:

* Calling the instance method of a null object.
* Accessing or modifying the field of a null object.
* Taking the length of null as if it were an array.
* Accessing or modifying the slots of null as if it were an array.
* Throwing null as if it were a Throwable value.

Applications should throw instances of this class to indicate other illegal uses of the null object.
