Calculating Average from a CSV File

Question

I have a CSV file, format as follows:

City,Job,Salary Delhi,Doctors,500 Delhi,Lawyers,400 Delhi,Plumbers,100 London,Doctors,800 London,Lawyers,700 London,Plumbers,

Answer 1

The first line contains the word "Salary" in the third spot. Put br.readLine()before the loop and everything should be fine.

You have:

br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(csv));
try {
  while ((line = br.readLine()) != null) {

Change it to:

br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(csv));
br.readLine()
try {
  while ((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
