Question

How do I set it up so that it will loop and read the next line of the file(This file has an arbitrary number of lines).

try

       { BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("score.txt"));

           String line = null;

       while ((line=br.readLine())!=null){

           String tmp[] = line.split(" ");

           name = tmp[0];

           grade = Double.parseDouble(tmp[1]);

           System.out.println(name + " " + grade);

       }

       br.close();

       }

Explanation / Answer

import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileReader;
import java.io.IOException;

public class ReadStringFromFileLineByLine {

   public static void main(String[] args) {
       try {
           File file = new File("test.txt");
           FileReader fileReader = new FileReader(file);
           BufferedReader bufferedReader = new BufferedReader(fileReader);
           StringBuffer stringBuffer = new StringBuffer();
           String line;
           // reading till end
           while ((line = bufferedReader.readLine()) != null) {
              
               // process read line
               //stringBuffer.append(line);
               //stringBuffer.append(" ");
           }
           fileReader.close();
           System.out.println("Contents of file:");
           System.out.println(stringBuffer.toString());
       } catch (IOException e) {
           e.printStackTrace();
