Chapter 4. PC #6. File Letter Counter (page 264)

Write a program that asks the user to enter the name of a file, and then asks the user to enter a character. The program should count and display the number of times that the specified character appears in the file.

Class name: FileLetterCounter

Hints:

Hint 1. To read a single character from the keyboard, you need to read a full line and then take the first character in position 0.

Hint 2. To count the occurrences of a given characters in a file you need to read the file line-by-line using a while loop, then for each line check all characters in all positions and increment the character counter for each occurrence. This will require to have a for-loop nested inside the while-loop.

Here is a working code Please modify it so it passes the test cases because I run it it does not work: Also I do not need Goodbye And I run it through hypergrade which it has all the test cases it does not work.

mport java.io.File;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.util.Scanner;

public class FileRead {
public static void main(String[] args) throws FileNotFoundException {
Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Please enter the file name or type QUIT to exit:");
String filename = keyboard.nextLine();
if (filename.equalsIgnoreCase("Quit"))
return;

File myFile = new File(filename);
while (!myFile.exists()) {
System.out.println("File: " + filename + " does not exist.");
System.out.println("Please enter the file name again or type QUIT to exit:");
filename = keyboard.nextLine();
if (filename.equalsIgnoreCase("Quit")) {
return;
}
myFile = new File(filename);
}

Scanner inputFile = new Scanner(myFile);
int lines = 0;
while (inputFile.hasNext()) {
String str = inputFile.nextLine();
lines++;
System.out.println(lines + ": " + str);
}
inputFile.close();
}
}
