A Java class that allows writing to files is Class FileWriter.
This class is a part of java.io package and extends (inherits
from) OutputStreamWriter class.
This class allows us to write character files conveniently. The
reason I chose this class is because of the functionality provided
by FileWriter class. It allows us to write to a new file, as well
as append content to an existing file. Given a filename as a
string parameter, it creates the file if it does not already exist.
So, the user is not required to explicitly create a new file before
writing to it using FileWriter class.
FileWriter class provides several constructors, which are as
follows:
1) FileWriter(File file) - takes File object as a parameter,
which corresponds to the file, the data is to be written to.
2) FileWriter(File file, boolean append) - takes two parameters:
one is the File object to which data is to be written to, and
second is a boolean parameter which indicates whether data is
to be appended to the file
3) FileWriter(String filename) - takes a string parameter for the
filename
4) FileWriter(String filename, Boolean append) - takes two
parameters, one for the filename (string) and a Boolean value
indicating whether data should be appended to the file or not
Pseudo code:
1. Create a string array and initialize elements of the array with
given data
String[] dataArray = new String[4];
dataArray[0] = "1001 Jennifer Ward SUPPLIES 2140.20
BOOKS 5200.10 PAPER 455.23 NORTH Phone";

dataArray[1] = "1003 Athena Andrews SUPPLIES 5155.55
BOOKS 6300.50 PAPER 223.25 SOUTH Email";
dataArray[2] = "1005 Andy Smith SUPPLIES 6155.55
BOOKS 300.50 PAPER 55.55 SOUTH Email";
dataArray[3] = "1006 Robert Stearns SUPPLIES 7255.55
BOOKS 8300.50 PAPER 77.77 SOUTH Phone";
2. Create a File object and pass the filename
File file = new File(“data.txt”);
3. Check if file exits by that name, if it does not create a new
file as follows:
file.createNewFile();
4. Create FileWriter object by passing the File object created
above
5. In a for loop write each element of the array to the file:
for(int i=0; i<dataArray.length; i++){
writer.write(dataArray[i]); //write the line to file
writer.write("n"); //write a newline to the file
}
6. Close the writer.
7. Catch any exceptions if thrown
RealCode:
import java.io.*;
class FileWritingExample
{
public static void main(String args[]){
String[] dataArray = new String[4];

dataArray[0] = "1001 Jennifer Ward SUPPLIES
2140.20 BOOKS 5200.10 PAPER 455.23 NORTH Phone";
dataArray[1] = "1003 Athena Andrews SUPPLIES
5155.55 BOOKS 6300.50 PAPER 223.25 SOUTH Email";
dataArray[2] = "1005 Andy Smith SUPPLIES
6155.55 BOOKS 300.50 PAPER 55.55 SOUTH Email";
dataArray[3] = "1006 Robert Stearns SUPPLIES
7255.55 BOOKS 8300.50 PAPER 77.77 SOUTH Phone";
try{
File file = new File("data.txt");
//check if file already exists
if(!file.exists()){
file.createNewFile(); //create a
new file if it does not exist
}
//create FileWriter object using File object
created above
FileWriter writer = new FileWriter(file);
//write content to file
for(int i=0; i<dataArray.length; i++){
writer.write(dataArray[i]); //write
the line to file
writer.write("n"); //write
a newline to the file
}
writer.flush();
writer.close(); //close the writer stream
}catch(IOException ioe){
//display the exception stacktrace

System.out.println("Error while writing to the
file");
ioe.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
