If you’re new to programming but want a career in tech, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND applying to one of Springboard’s online coding bootcamps (use code ALEXLEE for $1,000 off): bit.ly/3HX970h
It is hilarious to me that my computer science teacher spent an hour and a half lecturing of files and I didnt understand a single second of it, and then after watching you actually work in java for 7 minutes I understand.
I've got the same issue man. My uni lecturer is a brilliant programmer, but an absolute garbage teacher. No body in my class is learning, because for first year students he's expecting the output of veteran programmers. If anyone asks for clarification he's very patronising and if anyone challenges him on a topic he cuts them down with his knowledge and makes them question if they're right or wrong. Even when you do the research and know you're 100% right. Sadly this seems to be common place. Very few programmers are good teachers. Most are good at one or the other. Alex *IS* one of the good ones. If Alex was my lecturer I'd actually _want_ to be a programmer. I probably say that because my lecturer has left me so jaded.
Having watched a ton of java tutorials, I can easily say this video is one of the clearest, efficiently communicated videos out there with a good level of production value. I can't say thank you enough for that! Count me as subscribed...
ngl i'm laughing rn I've my exams in a couple days and i literally have no concept in file handling i was going through every available videos in yt and i was getting more and more confused then i stumbled upon this gem thanks mate ..... you just saved me
you know, you've been doing coding tutorials for at least 4+ years at the time i'm writing this comment and all of the videos you make are just crazy at the quality and the way that you explain things to make them seem so simple. i hope you keep doing this for a while and i really think you deserve more subscribers cause you are incredible at this.
i have a 2 whole books about java and files 2 hours in class 2 videos and still didnt understand files till i saw your video. you so underrated thank you!!!!!
I've been learnt English already sometimes(I'm from Ukraine), my level is low but I've understood all of this video. I think it's that because you speak very clearly. Great job!
Thank you so much. As previously stated, people over teach this waaaayyy too much and make it super confusing, but you made it so simple and I was able to finally finish my project. Thank you!!
I am a 43 year old bassoonist who decided to go back to school for a BA/MS computer science/IT degree. I have had 50% fewer meltdowns since discovering your channel. You are a lifesaver, and I'm buying a teeshirt.
Have been struggling in my Java courses for the last year and since finding your channel things are finally starting to make sense. By far the best Java tutorials on youtube. xxx
switching for medical lab tech to developing has been rough…not to mention its online and through Capella so I’m basically teaching myself.. your videos have been a godsend.
A friend recently sent my this video and I can quite say that it made my day. Your tutorials are incredibly useful and easy to follow. Thanks and keep up the good work!
Thats the video I want. Simple and easy to understand. I am doing cs minor right now and our lecturer spent 1hour to teach this topic. I wish you were my lecturer :(
Here in 2024, this works like a charm for reading text files. I was stumped on how to get them for some test cases on an assignment of mine and this saved me big time.
you simply make the best videos about those kind of things. every time i watch them they are super helpful and easy to understand. Ive been really struggeling with programming lately and u saved me so many times! THANK YOU
You have no idea how helpful your videos are, thank you soooo much!!!! You break everything down in such a concise way. My final is tomorrow and just after watching this I feel so much better already. Hats off to you sir
this is the only tutorial which really taught me this file reading/saving thing.. man you are a great teacher. its true that anyone can be anyone's teacher.. age doesn't matter. ty man.
When I'm following your videos, I'm in the habit of adding your later code points instead of replacing the earlier content. For this one I found that since the scanner had already reached the end of file printing to the console, when I called the writer the scanner would profile nothing. Since I don't know of a way to reset the scanner to line 0, I figured what I should do is put the scanner process into a new method which returns a string. It worked! But then I noticed that I wasn't using our File file, and then had to think about refactoring: keep the method using a file path string parameter, or change it to take a File object directly? whyNotBoth?.gif, which then got me thinking of method overrides and polymorphism and damn, it's good content. You give the viewer a rock solid example of a feature, which puts them into a strong position to extend upon it as they see fit and integrate it with other things. Top notch!
its funny because im already working as an app dev but im still here watching his video tutorial in Java coz reading alone made me so sleepy. XD Thank you!
Man i rarely comment on youtube videos but i am a programming student and watching you solved soooo many problems i had in so easy and simple way. Ty and keep up the great work!!
To copy and paste file path on mac: go to file and highlight- press Ctrl and click Mouse-at this point you could copy the file or press option to copy the file path
This is really helpful and your topics are spot on to what I am looking for. I am just starting in Java, and your video is fast, easy to understand and concise. This is exactly how a youtube tutorial should be.
Used to write and read from files with iostream (I still believe is more efficient ajaja) but your solution is faster. I would suggest to use a try catch instead of just letting the trows IOException on the function tho. Great work!
i wish i could just borrow you for an hour or so, so i can get help with my assignmnet and have it explained so much better and have all my questions awnsered
Thank you for this great video. In my case i have ellipsis caracter (...) in the line. Line in file: aaaaa...bbbbbb But with scan.nextLine(): Line1: aaaaa Line2: bbbbbbb
I continue to learn more from your videos than my professors. Great job! Any chance of showing out to save/print data input from a user? For example, user inputs request which is scanned against an array, then when done, prints a summary of what the user scanned.
hi! i don’t know if you’ll see this but i’ve always wondered what keyboard you have? the switches sound AMAZING and the style looks really nice so i was wondering if it was custom or something along those lines as i’m trying to pick out parts for a custom keyboard…. Your tutorials are great and even though you stopped doing them they still help me to this day! :)

Comments like this started getting annoying me

This is called Talent my friend :)

Well he didn't close the scanner. This is not a good idea! And not handling the exceptions is not recommendable either.

You can be everywhere in the world but you are here with me. And I appreciate it. ❤️❤️❤️
Your videos are helping me in my object oriented programming class four years after you made them! THANK YOU!
If not the best channel about Java, def. top 3. Thanks a lot Sir
Thank you! This video was very helpful. I felt so dumb not being able to figure out how to do this, but you really made it straight-forward.

oh God !!! finally found such a video which I was searching for, for a week. Thank you so much. No one taught as you did.
you simply make the best videos about those kind of things. every time i watch them they are super helpful and easy to understand. Ive been really struggeling with programming lately and u saved me so many times!
THANK YOU
Thanks dude......i was struggling for hours with this concept and now i understood it in just 7 minutes
Such a tech god, and u right the 3000 I think was the key to the full potential of the program, keep it up, chief
Alex, I can really say how much your videos help me ... keep up the good job !
alexlee u the GOAT for java tuto
if every teacher of java was like you, the world of "coder" would have been so much better :]

Why can't everybody explain Java this clearly? Thank you for this resource!!

I love how you explain things in detail, hope to see more java programs.
I swear it's one of the best video on files...
6:18 Why aren't there any red underlines at line 13 after replacing the "FileNotFoundException" with "IOException"?
Bro, you just summed up an entire chapter for me in 7 min. Thank you so much!!!
I had zero understanding of file i/o and this video helped me understand so much so easily! Thank you :)
Hey Alex can you make one video on how to read pdf file in java and how to write and load this file
What a life saving video to come into my recommended.
Fantastic tutorial. Video complexity and length were perfect
To copy and paste file path on mac: go to file and highlight- press Ctrl and click Mouse-at this point you could copy the file or press option to copy the file path
Great video man! This video really broke it the process down quickly and easily. You've gained a sub from me
You have the best tutorials mate. Keep it up!
You save me in every java project I need! Love you!
Prefer StringBuilders to string concatenation, things that take linear time take quadratic time instead.
Thanks
It's the small things like these that made me understand programming
Thank you so much! you are my life saver! I was able to submit my assignment because of your video!
Love the video, just no music is distracting. Thanks for making it!
I love how straightforward you are. Greetings from Kurdistan of Iraq.
Quality content. Keep it up!
Ben Lyman thank you!
Your Java tutorials are the best man.
Great content.. very beginner friendly
love from India❤️🙏
This guy is too much! So simple and easy to follow, thank you Alex.
You're the best teacher for Java!!!!
Hey man im becoming your fan because you are helping me alot in my semester.big thumbs up
You are my actual Java teacher
Would you consider making a tutorial like this but for a bufferedReader? I'd look at other people's videos but yours are clear and easy to understand!
Very efficient way of explaining. Thank you.
I like your videos and teaching style Alex, my only recommendation is drop the music in the background or lower it.
why is this so much easier than my thousand dollar university course
This is really helpful and your topics are spot on to what I am looking for. I am just starting in Java, and your video is fast, easy to understand and concise. This is exactly how a youtube tutorial should be.
I absolutely love your videos. They're extremely helpful!
hey man I love your videos thank you so much for making this playlist.
Thank you very much for this neatly done video! I learned more than what I thought I wanted to learn!
It is clear and concise in a good way, Thanks 🙏🏻
Thanks! Had to learn this for a class project.
Thanks a lot brother. I am new in java and this video helped me a lot. again thanks👌👌👏👏
A good friend once said: „Control, Shift and O fixes all your problems“
Since then I never hovered over a red line again! 😉
The newer videos with no music are much better, but this is still very useful.
Used to write and read from files with iostream (I still believe is more efficient ajaja) but your solution is faster. I would suggest to use a try catch instead of just letting the trows IOException on the function tho. Great work!
Thank you, sir! You saved my mid-term🥺
ALEX, u made my day. Thanks!!!!!
i wish i could just borrow you for an hour or so, so i can get help with my assignmnet and have it explained so much better and have all my questions awnsered
You are a really awesome teacher.
Thank you, great vid. How do you go about counting each word on a text file?
Jairo Poveda you would do scan.next() until the end of the file, then add up all the times you used scan.next(). That might work for you
Thank you for this great video.
In my case i have ellipsis caracter (...) in the line.
Line in file: aaaaa...bbbbbb
But with scan.nextLine():
Line1: aaaaa
Line2: bbbbbbb
Thank you, I was struggling with my Computer Science assignment. Appreciate the quick tip!👍🏾
Thank you very helpful for my AP Computer Science class

Thanks a lot buddy u helped me complete a micro java project Today

man ur body language just explains everything
you are really a very good tutor!!! keep it up. God bless you!!!
Not what I was looking for but this was helpful
Thank you❣❣ so much bro... Lots love from india 🇮🇳
would this be the same as reading intergers?
This video is amazing.

Hi Alex , any video or suggestion on, reading a string from a txt file and converting to a static string.
Love your vibe
the best, I'm learning more from you than my prof's.
Alex! can you do a video on how to input a string to look for a name in a system?
Love this channel. Please keep on making new content
My dawg came through for me yet again! Thanks Alex!
Can you use Scanner to read formatted text, I mean out of say 3 columns of numbers, choose jist the first column and print?
Thank you, you always help me, I am so grateful
THANK YOU IT WORKEDDDD FINALLY AFTER HOURS OF RESEARCH
