    How many bytes in 144 bits? Can you write code that reads that number of bytes from the file? There are methods for reading bytes into arrays.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.

    Do you have a problem reading bytes from a file 18 at a time?

    Yes. I want to read bytes from left to right and also want to split it as 18bytes of blocks. After this process i want to work with that each block separately. So please help me. I'm just a beginner to Java.

    Look at the FileInputStream class. It has methods to read bytes from a file.
