Question
Write a method public static int
readInFile(String line, File file) that returns the position number
of a line in the file filename or −1 if there is no such line or file.
We assume that this file contains names of people with a name per line.
Names (and hence lines) are listed in ascending alphabetical order in the file.
We can not find the same line twice.

- Write a java program that will solve the problem: For a given ListADT that contains Items with numerical key value (integer), reorder it into two partitions of equal size such as the difference between the sum of those integers in the first partition and the second partition would be minimal. The program should have a class code separate from the main code. 1. Use a separate file to store the graph data. The name of the file should be "yourname_floyd.dat". 2. Use a few (3- 4) different graphs to compare actual performance (execution time).arrow_forwardIn Java Suppose you are given a text file that contains the names of people. Every name inthe file consists of a first name and a last name. Unfortunately, the programmer thatcreated the file of names had a strange sense of humor and did not guarantee thateach name was on a single line of the file. Write a program that reads this file ofnames and writes them to the console, one name per line.For example, if the input file (Names.txt) contains:Bob Jones FredCharles EdMarstonJeffWilliamsThe output should be:Bob JonesFred CharlesEd MarstonJeff Williams Sample Output:Enter the name of the input file:Names.txtBob JonesFred CharlesEd MarstonJeff WilliamsFile processing completed.arrow_forwardIN PYTHON: Decrypting with ascii I have a file called 'dict.txt'. This file contains over 50,000 english words. One word from this file is used as a key (we do not know which one of course). Some have capital letters. I have another file called 'decrypt.txt' which is a file containing a string of numbers i must decrypt using a key found in the 'dict.txt'. This 'decrypt.txt' file message has length of 300. My question is, since i do not know which word (from the file with the 50,000+ words) is the key I must use to decrypt the other file, how do I write a function that: loops through all possible keys from 'dict.txt' to find the one that decrypts my file 'decrypt.txt' best? Somehow i must count how many 'words' are actual words to determine which key is best and then print my final decrypted message.arrow_forward
- Write a python program that prompts the user for their favorite basketball team. It should be able to read the list of teams provided below in a file called favorite_teams.txt and check if their team is in that file. Teams in the file:JazzBullsMavericksSpursIf the team is in the file let the user know that their team is in the list of favorites. If the team is not in the file, add the team to the end of the file. Also, let the user know that their team will be added to the file.Sample Run in File:What is your favorite NBA team? Jazz [Enter]Your team Jazz is in the listFile before and after run: JazzBullsMavericksSpurs Sample Run not in File:What is your favorite NBA team? Pelicans [Enter]Your team Pelicans is not in the list. It will be added.File before run: JazzBullsMavericksSpursFile after run:JazzBullsMavericksSpursPelicansarrow_forwardWrite a program called FiveLetterWords that: prints your name followed by three asterisks; reads the words in a text file into a String array, where each array entry contains a word; prints the number of words in the file; counts and prints the number of five-letter words; prints all of the five-letter words starting with a vowel (that is, 'a', 'e', 'i', 'o', or 'u'); finds and prints the alphabetically first five-letter word and the alphabetically last five-letter word. tale.txt file content : it was the best of times it was the worst of timesit was the age of wisdom it was the age of foolishnessit was the epoch of belief it was the epoch of incredulityit was the season of light it was the season of darknessit was the spring of hope it was the winter of despairarrow_forwardImage one is the example output of text-based histogram . Image 2 is my file. You can creat a new file too(up to u) as long as the output shows the times of appearances of the numbers. (Like the example showed in image 1, if number 20 appeared 1 times, print 1 star after it.
