Reading Android raw text file

Question

I have a words.txt file which I have placed in my res/raw folder. The words in the file are separated by space. I\'m having a hard time writing

Answer 1

To get the words from the file from raw folder try with the following approach

Read the data from raw folder using getResources().openRawResource(R.raw.song);
Then get the inputstream data in a byte array split the data with space.

Use the following code

InputStream is =getResources().openRawResource(R.raw.song);
            BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream(is);

            ByteArrayBuffer baf = new ByteArrayBuffer(50);

            int current = 0;

            while ((current = bis.read()) != -1) {

                baf.append((byte) current);

            }

            byte[] myData = baf.toByteArray();
            String dataInString = new String(myData);
            String[] words = dataInString.split(" ");
