How to search a CSV file based on an input field?

I am able to access only few number of lines (41 lines to be proper).after that I am unable to read.
import java.io.File;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class FileReader {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String filePath = "qwe.csv";
System.out.println("Enter the City name to be Searched\n");
Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
String searchTerm = in.nextLine();
readRecord(filePath, searchTerm);
}
public static void readRecord( String filePath, String searchTerm ) {
boolean found = false;
String City = ""; String City_Asciis = ""; String Lattitude = "";
String longitude = ""; String Country = "";
String iso_2 = ""; String iso_3 = ""; String Admin_Name = "";
String Capital = ""; String Population = ""; String Id = "";
try {
File file = new File(filePath);
Scanner x = new Scanner (file);
x.useDelimiter("[,\n]"); //to separate the data items
//hasNext - Returns true if the scanner has another token/value in its input
while(x.hasNext() && !found) {
City = x.next();
City_Asciis = x.next();
Lattitude = x.next();
longitude = x.next();
Country = x.next();
iso_2 = x.next();
iso_3 = x.next();
Admin_Name = x.next();
Capital = x.next();
Population = x.next();
Id = x.next();
if (City.equals(searchTerm)) {
found = true;
}
}
if (found) {
System.out.println(" The following details are of city : " + City +"\n The Ascii string would be : "
+ City_Asciis +"\n Its having the lattitude around : "
+ Lattitude + "\n and Longitude of : "+ longitude +"\n It is situated in : "
+ Country +"\n These have iso code like : "+ iso_2 +" and : "+ iso_3 +"\n It comes under : "
+ Admin_Name +" State \n Capital of this city is : "+ Capital +"\n The population is around : "
+ Population +"\n ZIP code is : "+Id+"");
}
else {
System.out.print("Enter the Correct City Name");
}
}
catch(Exception e1){
System.out.print("file not found \n");
e1.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
This code will load the searched city from the file path given, so that given a particular city name print the details of the city.

Who knows?
Without getting a headache, the code itself looks as though it should work and I personally can't off hand see why your read will only do 41 lines without doing a series of experiments with actual data and not many people really want to do that which is why you've been asked to provide some sample fictitious data.
It could be as simple as the fact that you are satisfying the boolean found variable criteria within the while loop condition and the loop breaks out stopping the read. I would suspect this since you do indicate that the "code will load the searched city from the file path given". I should think that this is not really what you would want for the mere reason that some countries contain the same City names. As a matter of fact, some States, Provinces, or Regions within the same Country can contain same City names. As an example did you know that in the United States alone, there are 88 Cities and Towns named Washington? I know, weird right, especially when you consider that there are only 50 States and 2 Territories. Benjamin Franklin was also one of the Founding Fathers of the United States and there are 35 cities and towns/villages that honorably carry the name of Franklin within that country.
If your data file or database is big enough then I'm sure you would want to display all cities that match your specific search criteria. With that being said perhaps what you need to do is get rid of that && !found condition for the while loop. I personally wouldn't use the Scanner#hasNext() method in the while loop condition either. It's an invitation for disaster since it's more focused towards checking the availability of tokens when used in combination with Scanner#next() rather than actual file lines. Use the Scanner#hasNextLine() in combination with the Scanner#nextLine() method then use the String#split() method to parse the CSV comma (,) delimited data lines one line at a time.
Below I provide a runnable Java code example which demonstrates the above mentioned methods. Your readRecord() method is used but considerably modified to accommodate the following options:
Return a List Interface (List<String>) of City information found
pertaining to the supplied search criteria.
Ignore (skip past) blank or comment lines within the CSV file. Comment lines can start with # or ;.
The option to ignore letter case during the search.
Allow for selection of the desired City Information field to which
the Search Criteria will be applied to. The City Information Fields
are:
City, CityAscii, Latitude, Longitude, Country, ISO2,
ISO3, AdminName, Capital, Population, and ID
Wildcard (? and *) characters can be used when supplying the desired search field so that the entire field name does not need to be provided, for example: lat* for Latitude. So, you can do a City Information search simply based on population if you like instead of a City Name.
Allow for wildcard (? and *) characters to be used within the
supplied search criteria for example: wash*. This tells the method
to search for any city which name starts with Wash like
Washington or Washougal or Washtucna.
Allow for the number of found city instances to be returned.
Below is the runnable code which demonstrates the above mentioned concepts. The code is well commented. There are Regular Expressions used within the code and if you want an explanation of those expressions then copy/paste them into regex101.com.

Create a new Java Application Project and name it CityInfoRecords. Copy and paste the above code over top of the Main Startup class. Run the application, read the console prompts carefully and enter the proper data.
The first prompt asks for a City Information Field name...enter: city.
The second prompt will ask for the search criteria for city...enter a city name in Upper or lower case (it doesn't matter). The city information will be displayed in console but only if that city name is contained within the City field within the data file.
Now run the code again and enter the same data except this time, for the city name just provide the first three letters of a city name and an asterisk (*) and then hit the enter key. Now any city information within your specific City Data File which starts with those supplied three letters will be displayed within the Console Window.
Play with it, try different fields to search from and play with the wildcard characters as well with your supplied field or search criteria data.
Now make readRecord a Class instead of a method which would be better.

How can I check if a string is available in a table?

Here's the table (tblemployees)
How can I convert my code that used text files to a code that will use database (tables).
int intcurrentLine = -1;
String[] strLineSplit = (sb.toString()).split("\\r?\\n"); // converts sb to string then splits it by line
int intNumElements = strLineSplit.length; // number of elements
while (intcurrentLine != (intNumElements - 1)) {
intcurrentLine++;
String[] strWords = (strLineSplit[intcurrentLine]).split(" ", 2); // splits the current line by the first instance(space)
if (strEmpID.equals(strWords[0])) { // checks if the employee ID is available
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Welcome " + strWords[1] + ", you have successfully logged in.");
strCheck = 1; // to confirm and go to time in and out process
break;
}
if ((intcurrentLine + 1) == intNumElements) { // condition to state that ID cant be found from the employee list
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "No such employee, please check the ID No. that you entered.");
}
}
Now I would like to search a column if it contains an Employee number. How do I put it to a condition, I've been searching but unable to find a clear answer. They only put how to search like this
String queryCheck = "SELECT * from messages WHERE EmpIDNo = 'COMSCI0001'";
ResultSet res = st.executeQuery(queryCheck);
then I'm lost, how to make a condition where if the employee no. doesn't exists something would happen else something would happen. I'm just confuse how to make a condition for that.

You can do like this:
String queryCheck = "SELECT * FROM messages WHERE EmpIDNo = 'COMSCI0001' LIMIT 1";
ResultSet res = st.executeQuery(queryCheck);
boolean exists = res.next();
The boolean variable exists will indicate whether a matching record exists or not.
Notice that I added LIMIT 1 at the end of the SQL as an optimization to avoid fetching more data than you really need.

Getting the next token and remaining String with StreamTokenizer

I have a StreamTokenizer that will tokenize a String. I am interested in a way to get the next token from a String, as well as the remaining String (without the token we just took).
public static void parseString(String s){
StreamTokenizer st = new StreamTokenizer(new StringReader(s));
try {
while (st.nextToken() != st.TT_EOF){
if (st.ttype == st.TT_WORD){
System.out.println("Word: " + st.sval);
if (st.sval.equals("start")){
start(st.sval, ???)
}
}
else if (st.ttype == st.TT_NUMBER){
System.out.println("Number: " + st.nval);
}
else if (st.ttype == '\''){
System.out.println(st.sval);
}
else{
System.out.println((char)st.ttype);
}
}
} catch (IOException e){}
}
public String start(String text, String theRest){
return "<start>" + text + "" + parseString(theRest) + "</start>";
}
Some things I've tried:
I've tried just using the original String s but StreamTokenizer doesn't alter a String after it tokenizes it (I forget the word to describe this).
I could find the index of the current token, and slice that token out of the original string.
I was wondering if there was a more elegant way to go about this?

In regards to the first bullet point, I believe the word you're thinking of is probably "immutable". You're correct, anything that seems to be manipulating a String is in fact creating a new string; the original is left intact.
For the second bullet point, frankly I would have suggested the same as well. At the moment I cannot think of a better way.
Here's a general example:
int startIndex = s.indexOf(currentToken) + currentToken.length;
String remainingString = s.subString(startIndex, s.length-1);
If my string is "Hi my name is Paul", and the current token is "name", the result of remainingString should be " is Paul".
You could easily encapsulate that in a helper method somewhere to help keep things clean and separated.
Probably not the answer you're looking for, but hopefully that somewhat helps.

After extracting data from html using a for loop, how do I insert one by one into a database?

I have extracted multiple data from an HTML using Jsoup and now I am trying to insert one by one into a derby db using JDBC on netbeans.
Here is my code:
public String nameOf() {
String nameStr = null;
String nameResults = "";
for(int j=100;j<=110;j++) {
refNum = j;
//System.out.println("Reference Number: " + refNum);
try {
//crawl and parse HTML from definition and causes page
Document docDandC = Jsoup.connect("http://www.abcd.edu/encylopedia/article/000" + refNum + ".htm").get();
// scrape name data
Elements name = docDandC.select("title");
nameStr = name.get(0).text();
//System.out.println(nameStr);
nameResults += nameStr + " ";
} catch (Exception e) {
//System.out.println("Reference number " + refNum + " does not exist.");
}
}
return nameResults;
So this method takes the names of diseases from 10 different HTMLs. What I am trying to do is to insert one name at a time to a derby db that I have created using JDBC. I have everything set up and all I have left to do is to insert each name in the corresponding name field of a table named DISEASE (which has fields: id, name, etc).
nameResults += nameStr + " ";
This part worries me as well since some diseases can have multiple words. Maybe I should use a list of some sort?
Please help! Thanks in advance.

Something like:
public List<String> nameOf() {
...
List<String> nameResults = new ArrayList<String>();
...
nameResults.add(nameStr);
...
return nameResults;

Java: 2 runtime errors I can't figure out

I am working on a homework assignment, and I am going a little "above and beyond" what is called for by the assignment. I am getting a run-time error in my code, and can not for the life of me figure out what it is that I have done wrong.
Here is the assignment:
Write a program that displays a simulated paycheck. The program should ask the user to enter the date, the payee’s name, and the amount of the check. It should then display a simulated check with the dollar amount spelled out.
Here is my code:
CheckWriter:
/* CheckWriter.java */
// Imported Dependencies
import java.util.InputMismatchException;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class CheckWriter {
public static void main(String args[]) {
Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);
// Try to get the name
String name = "";
NameValidator validateName = new NameValidator();
while (validateName.validate(name) == false) {
System.out.println("Enter the name: ");
name = keyboard.nextLine();
if (validateName.validate(name) == false) {
System.out.println("Not a valid name.");
}
}
// Get the date
String date = "";
DateValidator validateDate = new DateValidator();
while (!validateDate.validate(date)) {
System.out.println("Enter the date (dd/mm/yyyy): ");
date = keyboard.nextLine();
if (!validateDate.validate(date)) {
System.out.println("Not a valid date.");
}
}
// Try to get the amount of the check
String checkAmount = "";
CurrencyValidator validateCurrency = new CurrencyValidator();
while (!validateCurrency.validate(checkAmount)) {
System.out.print("Enter the Check Amount (XX.XX): $");
checkAmount = keyboard.nextLine();
if (!validateCurrency.validate(checkAmount)) {
System.out.println("Not a valid check amount.");
}
}
String checkWords = checkToWords(checkAmount); // ERROR! (48)
System.out
.println("------------------------------------------------------\n"
+ "Date: "
+ date
+ "\n"
+ "Pay to the Order of: "
+ name
+ " $"
+ checkAmount
+ "\n"
+ checkWords
+ "\n"
+ "------------------------------------------------------\n");
}
private static String checkToWords(String checkAmount) {
/**
* Here I will use the string.split() method to separate out
* the integer and decimal portions of the checkAmount.
*/
String delimiter = "\\.\\$";
/* Remove any commas from checkAmount */
checkAmount.replace(",", "");
/* Split the checkAmount string into an array */
String[] splitAmount = checkAmount.split(delimiter);
/* Convert the integer portion of checkAmount to words */
NumberToWords intToWord = new NumberToWords();
long intPortion = Long.parseLong(splitAmount[0]); // ERROR! (84)
intToWord.convert(intPortion);
String intAmount = intToWord.getString() + " dollars";
/* Convert the decimal portion of checkAmount to words */
String decAmount = "";
long decPortion = Long.parseLong(splitAmount[1]);
if (decPortion != 0) {
NumberToWords decToWord = new NumberToWords();
decToWord.convert(Long.parseLong(splitAmount[1]));
decAmount = " and " + decToWord.getString() + " cents.";
}
return (intAmount + decAmount);
}
}
Note that I am using external class files to handle validation of the name, date, currency, and conversion from numbers to words. These class files all work as intended.
The error I am getting is:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: ""
at java.lang.NumberFormatException.forInputString(Unknown Source)
at java.lang.Long.parseLong(Unknown Source)
at java.lang.Long.parseLong(Unknown Source)
at CheckWriter.checkToWords(CheckWriter.java:82)
at CheckWriter.main(CheckWriter.java:46)
I have commented the lines in my code that are causing the errors that I am experiencing.
Could someone please assist me in figuring where my code is going wrong? I can include the other class files if you feel that it would be needed.
EDIT: When I run the code, it asks for the name and date. Before asking for the check amount is when it throws the error.
EDIT 2: A huge thank you to cotton.m! Thanks to his advice, I have changed the while statements to look like this:
while(!validateDate.validate(date) && date == "")
This has now fixed my issue. It would appear that when validating data with a regex expression, an empty string will return true.

The String you are trying to parse in an empty length string.
My suggestion would be to
1) Check the value of checkAmount at the start of checkToWords - if it is blank there's your problem
2) Don't do that split. Just replace the $ like you did the , (I think this is your real problem)
Also you are going to have another issue in that 10000.00 is not a long. I see you are splitting out the . but is that really what you want?

It is NumberFormatException, the value in checkAmount (method parameter) is not a valid Number.
You need to set checkAmount=checkAmount.replace(",", "");
Otherwise checkAmount will still have , inside and causes NumberFormatExcpetion.

Your issue is with your delimiter regex, currently you are using \.\$ which will split on a literal . followed by a literal $. I'm assuming that what you are actually intending to do is to split on either a . or a $, so change your delimiter to one of the following:
String delimiter = "\\.|\\$"
or
String delimiter = "[\\.\\$]"
As your code is now, checkAmount.split(delimiter) is not actually successfully splitting the string anywhere, so Long.parseLong(splitAmount[0]) is equivalent to Long.parseLong(checkAmount).

It should be:
String delimiter = "[\\.\\$]";
and then you have to check that splitWord[i] is not empty.
