    Exclamation Help changing int's stored in array to words ( 1 to one) and printing in reverse.

    java - print numbers as word equivalent but in reverse

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    I am working on a program in java on notepad++ that opens a file(reverse.in) opens it and extracts the integers to an array. Now I need convert the numbers to words and print them out in reverse. For example 0 1 2 3 would become three two one zero.

    I have the array set but have no idea how to convert the numbers and print in reverse. This is only my 3rd week of java so the more info the better!!!
    import java.util.*;
    import java.io.*;
     
    public class Reverse1{
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception{
    int i =0;
    File file = null;
    file = new File("Reverse.in");
    BufferedReader bufRdr = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(file));
    String line = "";
    String [] numbers = new String[10];
     
    while ((line = bufRdr.readLine()) != null){
     
    StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer(line,",");
    while (st.hasMoreTokens()) {
    numbers[i]= st.nextToken();
    } 
    i++;
    }
     
    for (i = 1; i < numbers.length; i++) { 
    System.out.print("" + numbers[i]); 
    System.out.println();
    } 
    System.out.println();
    }
    }

    To get words from integer values look at using the switch statement
    or using if/else if statements to test the int value and set the word.

    Are the values integers or Strings? 1 or "1"
    If they are Strings you will need to convert them to integer values. See the Integer class for the parse method to use.

    You can place the words into an array then use the numbers as indicies into the array. This solution does not scale well if you plan on expanding the program to include much larger numbers. ie one thousand and forty nine.
