Hello, want to know how i can tell what lines a specific word appears on with all the words in a matrix.
EX
"I went and
ate
pie because
i am a hungry
person and love pie"
ok, now i have every single word in a seperate cell in a String matrix. Heres what i want to do.
I - 1,4
went - 1
and - 1,5
ate - 2
etc.
How to do it?
thanks!

Then you should read the line.
LineReader
or ?

i dont need to read the line. Heres what i did, i wrote the words to a file, i used in.readLine() to read the lines. Once i read the lines i used String Tokenizer to get get the plain words. I put those plain words into a matrix and each cell moving down is the next line and each cell moving right is each word. Example:
I went
to the store
cell[0][0]="I"
cell[0][1]="went"
cell[1][0]="to"
cell[1] [1]="the"
cell[1][2]="store"
now ill say it again... All i want to do is tell me what line# each word has come up in. Refer back to the first example in the first post.
Oh. so all you have to do is to set a line counter.
counting from the start when you read a line, you should just check whenever you read another line.
something like
int lineCounter = 0;
String temp = "";
while ((temp = bufferReader.readLine()) != null) {
lineCounter++; //this should be the one to determine your line number
//Split the words on this line. use your lineCounter
//Do your stuff
}

dude i dont need to know how to count lines. I need to know WHAT LINES EACH WORD HAS BEEN WRITTEN ON. I can just look at the matrix row to see what line its on, i just need to know how to get what lines EACH word is on. I really dont think i can phrase this any better. Simple to comprehend but i dont know why your having so much trouble doing so. Refer back to the first example to see what i mean by checking the words and telling you what lines its on.
