If I want to be able to display the “total sales” within the file “Cart.txt”, how would I do that?












1















I want the Cart.txt file to be able write whatever the total sales are in the file itself. The file right now just says:



3,2,Shoes
3,4,Shirt
2,5,Car


This is the current output:



run:
Enter how many items you are buying
3
Enter the items you are buying, structured as followed
Quantity,Price,Item Name:
3,2,Shoes
3,4,Shirt
2,5,Car
Those values were written to Cart.txt
Sold 3 of Shoes at $2.00 each.
Sold 3 of Shirt at $4.00 each.
Sold 2 of Car at $5.00 each.
Total sales: $28.00


This is the code itself:



package shop;

import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import java.util.Scanner;

public class Shop
{

public static void main(String args)
{
String fileName = "Cart.txt";
PrintWriter outputStream = null;

try
{
outputStream= new PrintWriter (fileName);
}
catch (FileNotFoundException e)
{
System.out.println("Error opening the file "+ fileName);
System.exit(0);
}

System.out.println("Enter how many items you are buying");
Scanner keyboard = new Scanner (System.in);
Scanner intinput = new Scanner (System.in);
int input = intinput.nextInt();

System.out.println("Enter the items you are buying, structured as followed"
+ " nQuantity,Price,Item Name:");


for(int count=1; count<=input; count++)
{
String line = keyboard.nextLine();
outputStream.println(line);

}

outputStream.close();
System.out.println("Those values were written to "+ fileName);

try
{
Scanner inputStream = new Scanner(new File(fileName));
String line = inputStream.toString();
double total = 0;
for(int count=1; count<=input; count++)
{

line = inputStream.nextLine();
String ary = line.split (",");
int quantity = Integer.parseInt (ary[0]);
double price = Double.parseDouble(ary[1]);
String description = ary[2];
System.out.printf("Sold %d of %s at $%1.2f each. n",
quantity, description, price);
total += quantity * price;

}

System.out.printf("Total sales: $%1.2fn", total);
inputStream.close();

}
catch (FileNotFoundException e)
{
System.out.println("Cannot find file " + fileName);
}
catch (IOException e)
{
System.out.println("Problem with input file " + fileName);
}

}
}

          Perform the following :




          1. Write to the file after calculating the total :
            outputStream.println(total);

          2. Close the outputStream after writing the total to the file




          EDIT:



          Make the following changes in this block of code :



              System.out.println("Enter the items you are buying, structured as 
          followed" + " nQuantity,Price,Item Name:");
          double tot = 0.0;
          for (int count = 1; count <= input; count++) {
          String line = keyboard.nextLine();
          outputStream.println(line);
          String arr = line.split(",");
          tot += (Integer.parseInt(arr[0]) * Double.parseDouble(arr[1]));
          }
          outputStream.println("Total sales: $" + tot);
          outputStream.close();
          System.out.println("Those values were written to " + fileName);


          Here we calculate the total for all entries and then just write it once to the file.



          Output




          3,2,Shoes



          3,4,Shirt



          2,5,Car



          Total sales: $28.0

          • Yea I tried that already before, but the program runs exactly the same, and the file looks the same.

            Nov 15 '18 at 18:18











          • Why are you first writing to the file and then trying to read it?

            – Nicholas K
            Nov 15 '18 at 18:33











          • My prompt wants me to first enter items like I'm purchasing something, store it to a file, and then display the items as well as the total. Then it wants me to write the total to the file as well which is what I'm having trouble with. I liked your response because I tried that too, but for some reason the total doesn't end up in the file at the end, only the original items.

          I would keep a running total and then add it in at the end:



          Double total = 0; 

          for(int count=1; count<=input; count++)
          {
          String line = keyboard.nextLine();
          outputStream.println(line);
          String arr= line.split(",");
          total += (Double.parseDouble(arr[0]) * Double.parseDouble(arr[1]));
          }
          outputStream.println("Total: " + total);

          • The doesn't work :( because you defined count as a double and it can't be converted as an int and you also use it as an int in the for statement.

            – Arvinder Singh
            Nov 15 '18 at 18:38











          • I know in your example you use integers as input. Are you allowing the user to enter doubles? I also changed count to total.

            – Sean Leroy
            Nov 15 '18 at 18:46













          • They can enter double for the prices only so it can be like: 2,3.50,Shoes for example. I'll try it with your updated code. Where exactly in the code should I place it? between what lines

            – Arvinder Singh
            Nov 15 '18 at 18:49











          • it is the original block of code with added lines around it. Replace your for loop with this.

          Perform the following :




          1. Write to the file after calculating the total :
            outputStream.println(total);

          2. Close the outputStream after writing the total to the file




          EDIT:



          Make the following changes in this block of code :



              System.out.println("Enter the items you are buying, structured as 
          followed" + " nQuantity,Price,Item Name:");
          double tot = 0.0;
          for (int count = 1; count <= input; count++) {
          String line = keyboard.nextLine();
          outputStream.println(line);
          String arr = line.split(",");
          tot += (Integer.parseInt(arr[0]) * Double.parseDouble(arr[1]));
          }
          outputStream.println("Total sales: $" + tot);
          outputStream.close();
          System.out.println("Those values were written to " + fileName);


          Here we calculate the total for all entries and then just write it once to the file.



          Output




          3,2,Shoes



          3,4,Shirt



          2,5,Car



          Total sales: $28.0

          • My prompt wants me to first enter items like I'm purchasing something, store it to a file, and then display the items as well as the total. Then it wants me to write the total to the file as well which is what I'm having trouble with. I liked your response because I tried that too, but for some reason the total doesn't end up in the file at the end, only the original items.

          I would keep a running total and then add it in at the end:



          Double total = 0; 

          for(int count=1; count<=input; count++)
          {
          String line = keyboard.nextLine();
          outputStream.println(line);
          String arr= line.split(",");
          total += (Double.parseDouble(arr[0]) * Double.parseDouble(arr[1]));
          }
          outputStream.println("Total: " + total);
