Read From File need help

[sdcz6]

hi guys,

its my fresh start here in JAVA can you help me do the ReadFromFile method uhm i need to read all the inputs from a file named "Input.in" which are :

Input.in
10 100
100 200
900 1000

and here's my main class

import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
public class one
{
	public static void main(String[]args) throws Exception
	{


		Scanner sc = new Scanner(new FileReader("Input.in"));

		int min = Integer.parseInt(sc.next());
		int max = Integer.parseInt(sc.next());

		int count=0;
		int maxCount=0;
	
		for(int x=min;x<=max;x++)
		{
			int temp=x;
			//System.out.print(x+" ");
			do{
				if(temp%2==0)
					temp=temp/2;
				else
					temp=(temp*3)+1;	
			count++;
			//System.out.print(temp+" ");

			}
			while(temp!=1);
			//System.out.print(count+1);
			
			if(temp==1)
			{	if(count>maxCount)
				maxCount = count+1;
				count=0;
			}

			//System.out.println();
		}
		System.out.print(min+" "+max+" "+maxCount);
		
	}
}

Okey the following code reads the integers from the file into an array.
I used 3 types of ways to put it into arrays.
array of int : int[6] (known size)
array of int : int[0] (unknown size)
arraylist of Integer : ArrayList<Integer>

what do i mean with known and unknown size.
now we both know that it will have to read 6 ints and store them in an array, so we can create an array of 6. ( ... = new int[6])
now if we haven't seen the file before we can't create an array with the size of 500 and hope it will fit into it (actually we can, but takes up too much memory space, looks bad, if it's more than 500 : crash , .... don't do that :) )
so that's the unknown size part. if there are 4 integers in the file, it will expand to an array of 4 etc..

the int arrays are known as static arrays, as they have a set maximum of objects / integers that you can put in. ArrayList is a dynamic array. Meaning you can just keep adding and adding and the ArrayList class will make sure it will increase size etc. Same if you're removing objects out of it, it will reduce in size.

in the following code i have used all 3 + added quite some comments to hopefully make it more understandable for you.

even used colors to make it more readable (OMG:eek:, yes i have too much time :D)
