This is just the base of what I have. Im having a lot of trouble when it gets to writing the array from the input file.

What sort of error are you getting??

As for me, im reading text files using Strings. Then I manipulate these Strings into whatever I want. Its just my suggestion.

Would be helpful if you used code tags as well :)

What are you trying to do? What do you expect to happen when you run this particular piece of code? What happens instead?
If you want people to help you, make it easy for them - tell them what the problem is.
This is also helpful for you, since it often turns out that stating a problem clearly leads you to a solution.


Code tags would also be handy, for legibility.
