Analyzing Integers from Text Files

Write a Java program that reads integers (both positive and negative) from a file (named numbers2.txt) and does the following:

  1. Prints the line number of each number along with the number itself.

  2. Prints the sum of all the numbers read.

  3. Finds and prints the largest and smallest number.

    [Your program should NOT store the numbers in Array/ArrayList].

  4. Separate the numbers into two ArrayLists, one containing odd numbers and other containing even numbers, and print them.

Sample Input: numbers2.txt


Sample Output (a): Prints the line number of each number along with the number itself.

import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.util.InputMismatchException;
import java.util.Scanner;

public class ReadIntegersRunner {

	public static void main(String args[]) {
		try {

			File inputFile = new File("numbers2.txt");
			Scanner input = new Scanner(inputFile);

			int line = 1;
			while (input.hasNext()) {
				int num = input.nextInt();
				System.out.println("Line "+line+":"+ num);
				line++;
			}
			input.close();

		} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
			System.out.println("Error: File not found.");
			
		} catch (InputMismatchException e) {
			System.out.println("Error: Incomptabile data in file.");
		}

			Scanner input = new Scanner(inputFile);

			int sum = 0;
			while (input.hasNext()) {
				int num = input.nextInt();
				sum = sum + num;
			}
			System.out.println("The sum is: " + sum);
			input.close();

		} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
			System.out.println("Error: File not found.");

		} catch (InputMismatchException e) {
			System.out.println("Error: Incomptabile data in file.");
		}

	}
}
