Question

Java program here I am stump with trying to fix this program we given. Basically I need to convert it from using a linkedlist and have it run by using a stack.

Thanks for the help

Program

import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.FileReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.util.LinkedList;
import java.util.Random;

class Player{
String playerCards[]=new String[5];
}

public class Cards {

public static void main(String[] args) throws FileNotFoundException,IOException{
int choice;
do{
BufferedReader in=new BufferedReader(new FileReader("<Enter the file path>"));
BufferedReader br=new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
LinkedList<String> card=new LinkedList<>();
String str;
while((str=in.readLine())!=null){//reading card from file
card.add(str);
}
Random ran=new Random();
LinkedList<String> suffledCard=new LinkedList<>();
  
while(card.size()!=0){//suffling the card
suffledCard.add(card.remove(ran.nextInt(card.size())));
}
  
System.out.println("Enter the number of player");
int n=Integer.parseInt(br.readLine());
Cards c=new Cards();
LinkedList<Player> players=new LinkedList<>();
  
for(int i=1;i<=n;i++){ //dealing the cards to player
Player p=new Player();
for(int j=0;j<5;j++){
p.playerCards[j]=suffledCard.removeFirst();
}
players.add(p);
}
  
//displaying cards of player
int i=1;
for(Player p:players){
System.out.println("Player "+(i++));
for(int j=0;j<5;j++){
System.out.print(p.playerCards[j]+" ");
}
System.out.println(" ");
}
System.out.println("Do you wish to continue?? Enter 1 for YES and 2 for NO");
choice=Integer.parseInt(br.readLine());
  
}while(choice==1);
}
}
