    Default Stuck on .txt files java

    I have to write a program that reads two .txt files as such:

    FileA.txt
    1 2 3
    4 5 6

    FileB.txt
    0 1 2
    3 4 5
    6 7 8

    Then using the input/output files method i have to create a program that prints out the results of of adding the numbers in the .txt files. So the output would be something like this.

    FileOut.txt
    1 3 5
    7 9 11
    13 15 17

    Thus far I have the following code and I am stuck and cannot figure out how to finish it

    import java.io.BufferedReader;
    import java.io.File;
    import java.io.FileReader;
    import java.io.FileWriter;
    import java.util.Scanner;
     
    public class FileMatrice {
    	public static void main(String[] args) {
     
     
    			FileWriter FileC = new FileWriter("output.txt");//output of merge files
    			Scanner in1 = new Scanner(new File("FileA.txt"));
    			Scanner in2 = new Scanner(new File("FileB.txt"));
     
    			while(in1.hasNextLine() && in2.hasNextLine()) {
    			   String line1 = in1.nextLine();   
    			   String line2 = in2.nextLine();
    			   String[] token1 = line1.split(" ");
    			   String[] token2 = line2.split(" ");
    			   if(token1.length != token2.length) {
    			   }
    			   int[] tot = new int[token1.length];
    			   for(int i = 0; i < tot.length; ++i) {
    			      tot[i] = Integer.parseInt(token1[i]) + Integer.parseInt(token2[i]);
    			      FileC.write(i);
    			   }
     
     
    		}
     
     
    		}
    	}
    }

    Could anyone help me complete the code? Thank you!

    What does your code do? What exactly are you stuck on? What confuses you?

    And what happened when you stepped through this with a debugger, or added some print statements? Where does the program's behavior start to differ from what you expected?

    So your code doesn't compile. What's the actual full text of the compiler error? What line does it occur on?
