Creating a table in a for loop java

I have 2 arrays which values are words, each word in the first table is associated with a text (String), now each word from second table is showing how many times (int) is repeating in text (String). The expected table should to be like:
This is the code that I've written so far:
keyW = txtKeyword.getText();
search = textField.getText();
System.out.println("String for car = " + search);
System.out.println("String keyword = " + keyW);
btnUpload.setEnabled(false);
btnNewButton_1.setEnabled(false);
btnNewButton.setEnabled(false);
txtKeyword.setEnabled(false);
textField.setEditable(false);
//waitLabel.setVisible(true);
int iar = 0;
int item;
Map<String, Integer> dictionary = new HashMap<String, Integer>();
String[] searchArray = search.split(",");
String[] itemsFromArray1 = new String[searchArray.length];
//Keyword1 = ("Searched Key"+ "\r\n\t ");
//listKeys.add(Keyword1);
for (iar = 0; iar < searchArray.length; iar++) {
itemsFromArray1[iar] = searchArray[iar].trim();
Keyword1 = (searchArray[iar]);
//listKeys.add(Keyword1);
}
String[] items = keyW.split(",");
for (item = 0; item < searchArray.length; item++) {
WebDriver driver = new HtmlUnitDriver();
((HtmlUnitDriver) driver).setJavascriptEnabled(true);
driver.get("https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/" + searchArray[item]);
tstr1 = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[#id='content']")).getText();
driver.quit();
String[] itemsFromArray = new String[items.length];
for (int i = 0; i < items.length; i++) {
itemsFromArray[i] = items[i].trim();
}
for (String string : itemsFromArray) {
int i = countWords(tstr1, string);
dictionary.put(searchArray[item].concat(string), i);
System.out.println("ARRAY " + dictionary);
}
}
private static int countWords(String tstr1, String string) {
tstr1 = tstr1.toLowerCase();
string = string.toLowerCase();
int posCount = 0;
String positive = string;
Pattern positivePattern = Pattern.compile(positive);
Matcher matcher = positivePattern.matcher(tstr1);
while (matcher.find()) {
posCount++;
}
return posCount;
}
I tried to achieve this with Map<String, Integer> dictionary = new HashMap<String, Integer>(); but the results (dictionary.put(searchArray[item], i);) are wrong. Can anyone give me an idea how to solve this. Thanks!
****UPDATE****
Now the results in the console is something like this:
ARRAY { boyanimal=4, catfree=18, catanimal=60, boyfree=2, catgender=0, boygender=6, windowfree=5}
ARRAY { boyanimal=4, catfree=18, catanimal=60, boyfree=2, windowanimal=4, catgender=0, boygender=6, windowfree=5}
ARRAY { boyanimal=4, catfree=18, catanimal=60, boyfree=2, windowanimal=4, catgender=0, boygender=6, windowgender=0, windowfree=5}
There are values that are repeting. How to make to show just like a table?

Try using this:
Map<String, Integer> tableMap = new HashMap<String, Integer>();
keep the key as:
tableMap.put("Word1-Search1",23);
Using this, you will always have a unique combination for each key.
I hope you don't want to store the data in a data structure? Instead you should use a 2 dimensional String array to store it.

Answering your latest update:
I think you're getting multiple copies because of this line.
dictionary.put(searchArray[item].concat(string), i);
I think the concat is being applied to the entire row of elements. I would use my debugger to analyze this and see what the value of searchArray[item] is and what the value of string is.

how to get string value in java

String Qty1 = "1";
String Qty2 = "2";
String qtyString = "", bString = "", cString = "";
for(int j = 1; j <= 2; j++)
{
qtyString = String.valueOf(("Qty" + j));
System.out.println("qtyString = " + qtyString);
}
output:
qtyString = Qty1;
qtyString = Qty2;
I would like to get qtyString = 1, qtyString = 2; I want to print Qty1 and Qty2 value in my for loop. In C#, this code works correctly. I don't know how to get qtyString value as 1, 2 in java.

You should use array of strings for this purpose.
String[] Qty = {"1","2"};
for(int j = 0 ; j < 2 ;j++)
{
System.out.println("qtyString = " + Qty[j]);
}

String array is needed if you want to print a list of string:
String[] Qty = {"1", "2"};
String qtyString = null;
for (int j = 0; i<=1; j++) {
qtyString = Qty[j];
System.out.println("qtyString = " + qtyString);
}
output:
qtyString = 1
qtyString = 2

I don't know for sure what you're trying to do, and you've declared Qty1 twice in your code. Assuming the second one is supposed to be Qty2, then it looks like you're trying to use string operations to construct a variable name, and get the value of the variable that way.
You cannot do that in Java. I'm not a C# expert, but I don't think you can do it in C# either (whatever you did that made you say "it works in C#" was most certainly something very different). In both those languages and in all other compiled languages, the compiler has to know, at compile time, what variable you're trying to access. You can't do it at runtime. (Technically, in Java and C#, there are ways to do it using reflection, depending on how and where your variables are declared. But you do not want to solve your problem that way.)
You'll need to learn about maps. Instead of separate variables, declare a Map<String, String> that maps the name that you want to associate with a value (Qty1, Qty2) with the value (which is also a String in this case, but could be anything else). See this tutorial for more information. Your code will look something like
Map<String, String> values = new HashMap<>();
values.put("Qty1", "1");
values.put("Qty2", "2");
...
qtyString = values.get("Qty"+j);
(Actually, since your variable name is based on an integer, an array or ArrayList would work perfectly well too. Using maps is a more general solution that works in other cases where you want names based on something else beside sequential integers.)

Try this examples:
With enhanced for-loop and inline array:
for(String qty : new String[]{"1", "2"})
System.out.printf("qtyString = %s\n", qty);
With enhanced for-loop and array:
String [] qtys = {"1", "2"};
for(String qty : qtys)
System.out.printf("qtyString = %s\n", qty);
Using for-loop and array:
String [] qty = {"1", "2"};
for(int i = 0; qty.length > i; i ++)
System.out.printf("qtyString = %s\n", qty[i]);

you can try this for java:
static String Qty[] = {"1", "2"} ;
public static void main(String[] args) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
for(int j = 0 ; j < 2 ;j++)
{
System.out.println("qtyString = " + Qty[j]);
}
}
And For Android:
String[] Qty = {"1","2"};
for(int j = 0 ; j < 2 ;j++)
{
System.out.println("qtyString = " + Qty[j]);
}

Duplicates in Array even though a Set was used

For a class project, we have to take a string(a paragraph),make it into an array of the individual words, and then make those words into objects of Object Array. The words cannot repeat so I used a Set to only get the unique values but only certain words are repeating! Here is the code for the method. Sorry for the vague description.
Private void processDocument()
{
String r = docReader.getLine();
lines++;
while(docReader.hasLines()==true)
{
r= r+" " +docReader.getLine();
lines++;
}
r = r.trim();
String[] linewords = r.split(" ");
while(linewords.length>words.length)
{
this.expandWords();
}
String[] newWord = new String[linewords.length];
for(int i=0;i<linewords.length;i++)
{
newWord[i] = (this.stripPunctuation(linewords[i]));
}
Set<String> set = new HashSet<String>(Arrays.asList(newWord));
Object[]newArray = set.toArray();
words = new Word[set.size()-1];
String newString = null;
for(int i =0;i<set.size();i++)
{
if(i==0)
{
newString = newArray[i].toString() + "";
}
else
{
newString = newString+newArray[i].toString()+" ";
}
}
newString = newString.trim();
String[] newWord2 = newString.split(" ");
for(int j=0;j<set.size()-1;j++)
{
Word newWordz = new Word(newWord2[j].toLowerCase());
words[j] = newWordz;
}

I believe the problem is when you put it into the HashSet the words are capitalized differently, causing the HashCode to be different. Cast everything to lowercase the moment you read it from the file and it should work.
newWord[i] = (this.stripPunctuation(linewords[i])).toLowerCase();

Try this:
public String[] unique(String[] array) {
return new HashSet<String>(Arrays.asList(array)).toArray();
}
Shamelessly copied from Bohemain's answer.
Also, as noted by #Brinnis, make sure that words are trimmed and in the right case.
for(int i = 0; i < linewords.length; i++) {
newWord[i] = this.stripPunctuation(linewords[i]).toLowerCase();
}
String[] newArray = unique(newWord);

Add to list at certain index

I'm having a problem with some list manipulation. I take the user's input and search through it: if i find an "=" sign i assume that the string in front of it is the name of a variable , so on the line right above that variable i want to add a new string to the user's input (in this case it is called "tempVAR", doesn't really matter though). I've been trying to do this with StringBuilder but without any success , so i currently am trying to do it with ArrayLists but I am getting stuck at adding new elements to the list. Because of the way list.add(index,string) works , the elements to the right of what i am adding will always add +1 to their index. Is there a way to always know exactly what index i am looking for even after a random number of string has been added? Here is my code so far, if you run it you will see what i mean, instead of "tempVAR" or "tempVar1" being added above the name of the variable they will be added one or to positions in the wrong way.

I've mapped the positions of the "=" and "if" to their positions in the StringBuilder, but these are remnants from when i was trying to use a stringBuilder to do what i said above.
I have been struggling with this for a few days now and still haven't managed to do what i need, i am not sure where i am going wrong. At the moment i am hellbent on making this work as it is (with either lists or string builder) after which , if there is a better way i will look into that and adapt this accordingly.
The addDelimiters() method is a method i created to avoid writing the string as you see it in "String text2" but i took that out for this because it would only clutter my already chaotic code even more :), i don't think it has any relevance to why what i am trying to do is not working.
TLDR: at the line above front of every varX or varY or other "var" i would like to be able to add a string to the list but i think my logic in getting the variable names or in adding to the list is wrong.

I think we both know that your code is messed up and that you need many more abstractions to make it better. But you could make it work by maintaining an offset variable, lets say "int offset". Each time you insert a string after the initial pass you increment it, and when you access the list you use it, "list.get(index+offset);". Read up on Abstract syntax trees. , which are a great way to parse and manipulate languages.

Manipulating a user's input

So I'm trying to manipulate the user's input in such a way that when I find a certain string in his input I turn that into a variable and replace the string with the name of the variable. (jumbled explanation I know, maybe an example will make it more clear).
public class Test {
static List<String> refMap = new ArrayList<String>();
public static void main(String[] args) {
String x = "PROPERTY_X";
String y = "PROPERTY_Y";
refMap.add(x);
refMap.add(y);
String z = "getInteger("PROPERTY_X)";
String text = "q=PROPERTY_X+10/(200*PROPERTY_X)";
String text1 = "if(PROPERTY_X==10){"
+ "j=1;"
+ "PROPERTY_X=5; "
+ "if(true){"
+ "m=4/PROPERTY_X"
+ "}"
+ "}";
detectEquals(text);
}
public static String detectEquals(String text) {
String a = null;
text = TestSplitting.addDelimiters(text);
String[] newString = text.split(" ");
List<String> test = Arrays.asList(newString);
StringBuilder strBuilder = new StringBuilder();
HashMap<String, Integer> signs = new HashMap<String, Integer>();
HashMap<String, Integer> references = new HashMap<String, Integer>();
List<String> referencesList = new ArrayList<String>();
List<Integer> indexList = new ArrayList<Integer>();
int index = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < test.size(); i++) {
a = test.get(i).trim();
//System.out.println("a= " + a);
strBuilder.append(a);
index = strBuilder.length() - a.length();
if (a.equals("=")) {
signs.put(a, index);
indexList.add(index);
// System.out.println("signs map--> : "+signs.get(a));
}
if (refMap .contains(a)) {
references.put(a, index);
// System.out.println("reference index-> "+references.get(a));
// System.out.println("reference-> "+references.toString());
}
}
//stuck here
for (String s : references.keySet()) {
//System.out.println("references-> " + s);
int position = references.get(s);
for (int j : indexList) {
if (j <= position) {
System.out.println(j);
}
}
//strBuilder.insert(j - 1, "temp1=\r\n");
}
System.out.println(strBuilder);
return a;
}
Say the user inputs the content of the string "text", I'm trying to parse that input so when I find "PROPERTY_X", I want to create a variable out of it and place it right before the occurrence of text, and then replace "PROPERTY_X" with the name of the newly created variable.
The reason I'm also searching for "=" sign is because I only want to do the above for the first occurrence of "PROPERTY_X" in the whole input and then just replace "PROPERTY_X" with tempVar1 wherever else I find "PROPERTY_X".
ex:
tempVar1=PROPERTY_X;
q=tempVar1+10/(200*tempVar1);
Things get more complex as the user input gets more complex, but for the moment I'm only trying to do it right for the first input example I created and then take it from there :).
As you can see, I'm a bit stuck on the logic part, the way I went with it was this:
I find all the "=" signs in the string (when I move on to more complex inputs I will need to search for conditions like if,for,else,while also) and save each of them and their index to a map, then I do the same for the occurrences of "PROPERTY_X" and their indexes. Then I try to find the index of "=" which is closest to the index of the "PROPERTY_X" and and insert my new variable there, after which I go on to replace what I need with the name of the variable.
Oh the addDelimiters() method does a split based on some certain delimiters, basically the "text" string once inserted in the list will look something like this:
q
=
PROPERTY_X
+
10
etc..
Any suggestions are welcome.
