how to read a csv file line by line having line break and coma in fields
You can read the entire file into a String variable and then use String.replaceAll() to replace the characters as you want:- File file = new File("abc.csv"); FileInputStream fis = null; fis = new FileInputStream(file); byte[] data = new byte[(int) file.length()]; fis.read(data); fis.close(); String str = new String(data, "UTF-8"); And then...
c file handling : unable to write after 25 y?
There are two reasons for failure. If your system opens files in text mode by default, it will respond to control characters. So you must open the files in binary mode: p = fopen("three", "wb"); ... q = fopen("three", "rb"); The second failure is the use of the useless feof()....
