Lets say I have a text file called: data.txt (contains 2000 lines)
How do I read given specific line from: 500-1500 and then 1500-2000 and display the output of specific line?
this code will read whole files (2000 line)
public static String getContents(File aFile) {
StringBuffer contents = new StringBuffer();
try {
BufferedReader input = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(aFile));
try {
String line = null;
while (( line = input.readLine()) != null){
contents.append(line);
contents.append(System.getProperty("line.separator"));
}
}
finally {
input.close();
}
}
catch (IOException ex){
ex.printStackTrace();
}
return contents.toString();
}
How do I modify above code to read specific line?
