Reading from a file

[Ant_Magma]

Lets say i have a file "userDistance.txt" with the contents:

Legend:
A B C D E

Distance:
{0}
{10 0}
{11 12 0}
{11 12 13 0}
{11 12 13 14 0}

Using Scanner and FileInputStream, how do i extract the data for legend and distance and store:
1. ABCDE in to String called legend
2. The distance matrix into a multidimensional array

I have tried things like

if(inputStream.next()=="Legend:")

or nextLine()

To detect the 1st line with the word Legend and extract all the characters after Legend, but it doesnt work.

Please help, thx guys...

This help you get started:

BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new FileInputStream("userDistance.txt"));

String key = in.readLine();
if (key.equals("Legend"))
{
    //break the string up into tokens using a "space" as the delimiter
    String[] legend = in.readLine().split(" ");
}

Oh Phaelax, thx man..after reading ur code i guess i know what was wrong with mine..

I used == instead of equals. I keep on forgetting that String is an object..
