[supahsain]

I got this assignment, and almost have no clue, and my teacher doesn't even teaches us anything
This is what i am suppose to do

5. The program must store the following data about each student in this Talent Show:
* The student's name (store as a String)
* The student's average time score [only for the events they competed in] (store as a Double)

Note: Some of the data comes directly from the text file, and some of the data must be calculated from the data that is read from the file.

6. The program must search through all of the student's scores to find the student who has the minumum average time of all students.
7. You must calculate how many events each student played. Zero values are not counted.
8. You must then generate a report on the screen that prints out
* the total number of students in the competition,
* the winning student's ...
o name
o times
o average time (rounded to one decimal places)

Sample output

btw this is the data file

My code so far

import java.io.*;
 
public class test
{
    public static void main (String [] args)
    {
 
        FileInputStream File1;
        DataInputStream In;
        String fileInput = "";
 
        try
        {
           File1 = new FileInputStream ("data.txt");
 
 
            In = new DataInputStream (File1);
 
 
            while (In.available () > 0)
            {
                fileInput = In.readLine ();
                System.out.println (fileInput);
            }
 
            In.close ();
        }
 
        catch (FileNotFoundException e)
        {
            System.out.println ("Error - this file does not exist");
        }
 
        catch (IOException e)
        {
            System.out.println ("error=" + e.toString ());
        }
 
    }
}

My question, how do i save the data in to an array, and how do i seperatly save names in to different array, and their scores in to different arrays

btw he said you can't use scanner class

Thanks

I would have maybe an ArrayList of arrays, or ArrayList of ArrayLists...the first dimension must be dynamic (i.e. you don't know how many participants there will be).

When you read in a line, you have it as a String. Then you can use the parseInt method to check if you got a new name or a number. If it's a number, then it's another event score/time for the current participant, and you can add the value to the current ArrayList. If it's a new name, you build a new ArrayList and start modifying that (after finalizing the last ArrayList you were working on).

You may want to create your own class, like Racer, which will have the name (String) and an array/ArrayList of the scores. This means you can have an ArrayList of Racers, and will simplify your code somewhat.
