Question

How can I open a .txt file and read numbers separated by enters or spaces into an array list?

Answer 1

   try{

    BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("textfile.txt"));
    String strLine;
    //Read File Line By Line
    while ((strLine = br.readLine()) != null)   {
      // Print the content on the console
      System.out.println (strLine);
    }
    //Close the input stream
    in.close();
    }catch (Exception e){//Catch exception if any
      System.err.println("Error: " + e.getMessage());
    }finally{
     in.close();
    }

This will read line by line,

If your no. are saperated by newline char. then in place of

 System.out.println (strLine);

You can have

try{
int i = Integer.parseInt(strLine);
}catch(NumberFormatException npe){
//do something
}  

If it is separated by spaces then

try{
    String noInStringArr[] = strLine.split(" ");
//then you can parse it to Int as above
    }catch(NumberFormatException npe){
    //do something
    }
