Question

 Java: The current code uses a hashset to count the amount of total vowels in my textfile.  How can I adjust it to count each vowel individually instead of the the total.  import java.io.*; import java.util.Arrays; import java.util.HashSet; import java.util.Scanner;  public class Number2 {         static String fileName = "E:\Lincoln.txt";          public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {                  int vowelCount = 0;                  try (BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(fileName))) {                          HashSet vowels = new HashSet<>(Arrays.asList(new Character[] { 'A', 'E', 'I', 'O', 'U' }));                          String s;                         while ((s = in.readLine()) != null) {                                 for (char ch : s.toCharArray()) {                                         if (Character.isAlphabetic(ch)) {                                                 ch = Character.toUpperCase(ch);                                                 if (vowels.contains(ch))                                                         vowelCount++;                                         }                                 }                         }                  } catch (IOException ex) {                  }                  System.out.println("Total vowels = " + vowelCount);         } } 

Explanation / Answer

Number2.java

import java.io.*;

public class Number2 {
static String fileName = "D:\Lincoln.txt";

public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {

//int vowelCount = 0;
int letterACount = 0;
int letterBCount = 0;
int letterCCount = 0;
int letterDCount = 0;
int letterECount = 0;
try {
       BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(fileName));
           String s;
while ((s = in.readLine()) != null) {
for (char ch : s.toCharArray()) {
if (Character.isAlphabetic(ch)) {
   ch = Character.toUpperCase(ch);
if(ch=='A'){
   letterACount++;
}
else if(ch=='B'){
   letterBCount++;
}
else if(ch=='C'){
   letterCCount++;
}
else if(ch=='D'){
   letterDCount++;
}
else if(ch=='E'){
   letterECount++;
}
}
}
}
System.out.println("Letter A Count: "+letterACount);
System.out.println("Letter B Count: "+letterBCount);
System.out.println("Letter C Count: "+letterCCount);
System.out.println("Letter D Count: "+letterDCount);
System.out.println("Letter E Count: "+letterECount);
  

} catch (IOException ex) {

}

}
}

Output:

Letter A Count: 2
Letter B Count: 2
Letter C Count: 1
Letter D Count: 2
Letter E Count: 2
