Help with counting words in a file please
I have written a program to read in a directory of directories, process the files within the inner directory and to return a float value for each file.
The problem is that i need to add, for each individual directory the float values corresponding to the files within
So if a directory contains file1 =2 file2 =6 and file 3 = 9 for example i want to return 17.
static int indentLevel = -1;
static void ReadDir(File path) {
float sum[];
float max = 0;
int common = 0;
File files[];
indentLevel++;
files = path.listFiles();
for (int i=0, n=files.length; i < n; i++) {
for (int indent=0; indent < indentLevel; indent++) {
//Returns a float value for each file
common = (findCommonWords(firstFile(),readFile(files[i])));
//add all results of common
sum = new float[(int)files[i].length()];
sum[i] = (returnSimilarity(common, totalF1(), totalF2(files[i])));
}
if (files[i].isDirectory()) {
ReadDir(files[i]);
}
}
indentLevel--;
}
Here above sum will contain the values for every file in every directory instead of just the values for the files in the current directory. Does anybody know how to change this so as just the values for the current directory end up in sum. I would be grateful for any help you can give
Thanks
